India’s greatest player of all time is Rohit Sharma, not Virat Kohli. Junaid Khan Throughout the 2023 World Cup, Indian players had outstanding form, and their memorable exploits helped them advance to the final match against Australia. India’s hopes of winning the trophy were shattered when they lost the match by six wickets, despite having defeated every opponent they faced before. India was the clear favorite to win the title.
Senior batsmen Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma were essential to India’s outstanding tournament performance. With three hundred, Kohli became the first player to reach 50 centuries in ODI cricket, surpassing Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most centuries in the history of the competition.
In addition, he broke Tendulkar’s record for the most runs in a World Cup campaign, scoring an incredible 765 runs across 11 games. With 597 runs at a strike rate of 125.94 in as many matches, Rohit finished as the tournament’s second-highest run scorer with one century.
His efforts were frequently cited as the primary cause of India’s triumphs.
Prominent fast bowler Junaid Khan from Pakistan declared that Rohit should be acclaimed as the best batsman in Indian history, better than even Virat Kohli and Vijay Tendulkar.
I believe it to be Rohit Sharma. He has a variety of shots in his book because of the manner in which he bats. Junaid stated as much on the Nadir Ali Podcast. “That’s why he is called the Hitman.”
It’s a challenge in and of itself to score 264 in an ODI and produce two more double-hundreds: Junaid
According to Junaid, Rohit holds the record for the most sixes for India in one-day international cricket (ODI) and is the only player in men’s ODI history to have scored three double hundreds. Notably, the highest-ever score in one-day international cricket is still Rohit’s 264 against Sri Lanka in 2014. He also broke the record for the most sixes in international cricket during the 2023 World Cup.
“Making two more double hundreds after scoring 264 in an ODI is a task in and of itself.” Repetitive performance indicates the presence of a particular trait. Additionally, he has struck the most sixes for India. Thus, I support Rohit,” said Junaid, who played for Pakistan in nine Twenty20 Internationals, 76 One-Day Internationals, and 22 Test matches between 2011 and 2019.
