This has been a fascinating year for the Indian batting stalwart Rohit Sharma. When we look at his exploits in 2019, there remains no doubt that we have seen his best version as a batsman this year. He made his way to India’s Test side once again and has also played some defining knocks in T20Is. However, it is his ODI form that has been absolutely magnificent this time.
Earlier this year, the 32-year-old finished as the highest run-getter during the World Cup. He scored 648 runs in nine innings during the mega event in England and, that too, at an excellent average of 81.00. These runs included five massive tons too and that sums up how well he batted during the tournament. And now, Rohit has gone on to end the year as the highest run-getter in the format as well.
He finished with 1490 ODI runs to his name in 2019 at an outstanding average of 57.30 and an excellent strike-rate of 89.92 as well. That included seven hundreds and six fifties. In fact, his tally of 13 scores of fifty-plus and 146 boundaries are the most by any batsman this year. Moreover, he has hit the third-most number of sixes (36) in ODIs this year as well. Only Chris Gayle (56) and Eoin Morgan (41) have hit more sixes than him.
