Rohit Sharma scored a magnificent 86 runs in the process of tormenting the Pakistani bowlers during the India vs Pakistan clash. His 56-run knock was aided by six boundaries and as many sixes. 



Sharma was on a six-hitting spree against Pakistan on October 14 and achieved the milestone of being the only third batter in cricket to register 300 maximums on the list of most sixes in ODI cricket.



The Indian skipper belted Pakistani pacer Haris Rauf over mid-on to reach the landmark of 300 sixes in the ODIs during the ICC World Cup 2023.



In the list of most sixes in ODI cricket, Pakistani all-rounder Shahid Afridi has claimed the top spot with a record 351 maximums in 398 games, followed by West Indies' Chris Gayle (331 sixes in 301 matches). Rohit Sharma is placed third on the list with a total of 303 maximums in 254 games.



Interestingly, Rohit Sharma, during India's ICC World Cup 2023 fixture against Afghanistan, went past Chris Gayle's record of most sixes in International Cricket (across formats). While Chris Gayle's record stood at 553 sixes, Rohit Sharma bravely stands at 562 maximums across the three cricket formats (ODI + T20I + Tests).



Below is the list of the most sixes in International Cricket and Most Sixes in ODI Cricket History. Rohit Sharma makes big in both lists.

Former India wicket-keeper batter Dinesh Karthik is having a great time in the ongoing SA20 2025 for the Paarl Royals. The wicketkeeper batter played his best innings in the tournament on Thursday (30th January) against Joburg Super Kings at The Wanderers Stadium, in Johannesburg. 
Dinesh Karthik had a great outing with the bat for his team and helped his team post a fighting total on the board. The keeper-batter slammed a magnificent half-century and entertained the crowd both in South Africa as well as back home in India with his power-hitting. 
The highlight of Dinesh Karthik's innings was the three sixes that he hit on three balls against Wihan Lubbe in Paarl Royals' 13th over. He hit the first six on a free hit as he went down on the knees and hit a slog sweep into the deep mid-wicket stands for a massive six. 
On the next ball, Lubbe bowled a short ball, which Dinesh Karthik made full use of. He pulled the ball over deep square leg for his second consecutive six and put the spinner under pressure. Then on the next ball, the keeper-batter again was on his knees and played a slog sweep, which went over mid-wicket into the crowd. 
You can see the video at the end of the article: 
Dinesh Karthik played a sensational innings of 53 runs off 39 balls. He batted with a strike rate of over 135 and also slammed 4 fours and 3 sixes in his innings. Thanks to his effort with the bat, Paarl Royals posted a fighting total of 150 runs on the board. 
His effort, however, went in vain as Joburg Super Kings chased the target with 7 wickets in hand. Faf du Plessis was the star with the bat for his team as he played an innings of 87 runs off 55 balls. He batted with a strike rate of 158 and slammed 4 fours and 7 sixes to take his team home.

Himanshu Sangwan is currently the Lucifer of Indian fans, as the excitement that drew thousands of fans across the nation to the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi has been ruined by the sensational speedster. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virat_Kohli">Virat Kohli</a>, the heartthrob of millions of Indian cricket fans, was back after 15 years to play his first-ever Ranji Trophy match since 2010. The expectations were high as the crowd seemed pumped up and awaiting their superstar's return with the bat. 
The chance to watch their favourite cricketer came when Kohli came onto bat at No. 4 for Delhi after the dismissal of Yash Dhull. However, it was not the best of the days for the GOAT but a remarkable day in the career of a young and promising Himanshu Sangwan, who got the best of the batter when he rattled his stumps with a stellar seam-up delivery that swung back sharply at the King of Indian cricket. 
Right-arm medium-fast bowler Himanshu Sangwan is a 29-year-old cricketer who was born on September 2, 1995, in Delhi, India. The Delhi-born cricketer represents the Railways team in domestic cricket. Sangwan made his List A debut on September 27, 2019, in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, followed by his T20 debut on November 8, 2019, in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. He is an Indian cricketer who has made a name for himself in domestic cricket with his impressive bowling. 
He idolizes Australian fast-bowling legend Glenn McGrath and credits him for refining his bowling skills, particularly in seam positioning, as he claims to have learned all by observing the former great. As of now, Himanshu Sangwan has played a total of 23 first-class matches, 17 List-A matches, and 7 T20s and has taken 77, 21, and 5 wickets, respectively.
Sangwan’s story inspires all, while it also draws similarities to one of the finest Indian players, MS Dhoni. Belonging to a humble background, Sangwan started his career early and with loads of struggle aimed at what he gained today, dismissing one of the most decorated batters in the world. Before making his mark in cricket, Sangwan was employed as a ticket collector in Delhi, balancing his job while chasing his cricketing dreams. 
From cricket to a job in the Railways and then continuing his career with the Ranji Trophy, it has not been easy for the Delhi boy. However, as said by greats, hard work often pays off, and the rising star could soon be seen knocking on the doors of the most premium Indian tournament, the IPL. 
During the Ranji Trophy clash between Delhi and Railways at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, Himanshu Sangwan grabbed headlines as he bowled star batter Virat Kohli for just 6 runs, while he also took the wicket of set batter Sanat Sangwan.
The pace bowler celebrated the wicket aggressively, letting out a loud roar and sprinting towards his teammates, as they all knew what heights he could achieve with his high-ended game.

Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra has picked his Indian XI for the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. The penultimate game of the five-match T20I series between the teams will be taking place on Friday (31st January) at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. 
Aakash Chopra has suggested two massive changes for India for the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. The cricketer-turned-commentator wants Arshdeep Singh to be back for the team in the place of Washington Sundar and also wants Shivam Dube to replace Dhruv Jurel in the team. 
Arshdeep Singh was rested from the last IND vs ENG T20I, while Dhurv Jurel played after Rinku Singh was ruled out of the 2nd and 3rd T20I due to a back injury. With the series on the line, India would be keen to win and take an unassailable lead of 3-1 in the series. 
Aakash Chopra wants India to continue with the same opening combination of Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson. The left-hander has been having a decent time with the bat while the keeper-batter has struggled to get going in the IND vs ENG series, bagging low scores in three games. 
At No.3, Chopra picked Tilak Varma, who played a match-winning knock for India in the third T20. Skipper Suryakumar Yadav will be batting at No.4 as per Chopra. The captain needs some runs under his belt as he has failed to get going. He would be keen to score runs for his team as well. 
Hardik Pandya and Shivam Dube are the two all-rounders picked by Aakash Chopra in his Indian XI for the fourth IND vs ENG T20I. The cricketer-turned-commentator wants three spinners in the team in Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi and Varun Chakravarthy, who has been India's best bowler in the series. 
For the pace department, Aakash Chopra wants both Mohammed Shami and Arshdeep Singh to play. In the last three T20Is, India has played with one frontline pacer and they would want to change that in the upcoming match.

Australia Cricket Team has faced a massive blow ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. T20I captain Mitchell Marsh has been ruled out the entire tournament with a back injury, and there are chances that he might miss the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. 
Mitchell Marsh has been struggling with his back ever since the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 started. The pacer looked in pain but continued playing for Australia before he was dropped from the team as Beau Webster replaced him for the last match at the Sydney Cricket Ground. 
Following that, Mitchell Marsh played a single game in the Big Bash League, and after that,t, he was rested from the last three matches of the BBL season to mentally and physically refresh ahead of the ICC  Champions Trophy 2025. However, it came as a big surprise that selectors ruled him out. 
<h2>Mitchell Marsh has been ruled out of the upcoming ICC Men's Champion's Trophy with ongoing lower back pain and dysfunction - Cricket Australia </h2>
Cricket Australia released the official statement, saying that the all-rounder has been ruled out with lower back pain and dysfunction. The statement added that they made the decision, keeping in mind the long-term plan, adding that they will be naming a replacement soon. 
"Mitchell Marsh has been ruled out of the upcoming ICC Men's Champion's Trophy with ongoing lower back pain and dysfunction. The National Selection Panel and Australian men's medical team ruled Marsh out of the tournament with the injury which has not responded sufficiently to rehabilitation. 
"His lower back pain flared in recent weeks, leading the NSP to make the longer-term decision for Marsh to complete a more extended period of rehabilitation. Marsh will now undergo a period of further rest and rehabilitation as part of his return-to-play plan. The NSP will meet to decide on a replacement for Marsh in due course." Statement from Cricket Australia read. 
Mitchell Marsh getting ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 comes as a huge blow. The all-rounder has been the key member of the team in the white-ball cricket. Since 2023, he has been sensational with the bat, as he has averaged 44.54 in ODIs with a strike rate of 109.13. Along with this, he also has been handy with the ball. 
Cricket Australia are also mulling over the fitness of captain Pat Cummins as well. The pacer has been struggling with the ankle injury and there is no clarity over him as well. If both Marsh and Cummins get ruled out, then there will be headaches for the management as they won't have a captaincy option. 
Steve Smith and Travis Head might be asked to take over the role then. Josh Inglis also is there as he recently led the team in home summer, both in T20Is and ODIs.
