Rohit Sharma joined the immortals of limited-overs cricket with his sensational 3rd ODI double-century

Rohit Sharma has done such a good thing at the PCA Bindra Stadium in Mohali, which is why everyone is surprised. The Mumbai batsman proved once again that why he is called ‘Hitman’. With the unbeaten innings of 208 runs in 153 balls, 30-year-old Rohit became the only player to score three double centuries in one-day cricket history.




Talk about the highest double century in ODIs, then Rohit alone is very heavy on the ODIs. Leave Rohit alone, there are 2398 players in total, who together can get 4 double centuries. But Rohit has made history with three double centuries
