Indian skipper Virat Kohli and opening batsman Rohit Sharma made a record-breaking partnership of 246 runs while chasing the score of 323 against Windies. In the first inning, Windies set the target of 323 for team India with the help of Shimron Hetmyer's ton.

Now when the team India came to chase the score they lost their first wicket too early in the form of Shikhar Dhawan who got out on 4 runs. However, after that skipper, Virat Kohli entered the ground and set a record-breaking partnership with Rohit Sharma. Their 246 runs record-breaking partnership helped the team Indian to achieve the target in just 42 overs.

 

One hand when everyone is appreciating Virat Kohli for hitting the fastest 60 tons in the international cricket by breaking the record of Sachin Tendulkar, while on the other hand, Rohit Sharma also has made some brilliant record. It is known that Rohit Sharma in on top while hitting the most 200s in ODI, he has three double tons, 209, 208*, and 264.

 

Now the interesting thing is this that not only double hundreds he also made a record of making most 150s in ODIs. Rohit Sharma in his ODI career hit 6 150s that means he got a chance to hit more than 150 runs in the ODI career for six times. He broke the record of Sachin Tendulkar and David Warner jointly who had 5 150s records in their ODI career.

Rohit Sharma 150 runs record:

264 against Sri Lanka, 2014.

209 against Australia, 2013.

208* against Sri Lanka, 2017.

171* against Australia, 2016.
