Rohit Sharma has been one of the most prolific run-getter in T20 internationals over the years, and currently in the third spot overall. On Thursday, when he walks out to bat in the 1st T20I against Sri Lanka in Lucknow, the Indian captain will be on the cusp of completing a landmark and equalling the mark of Pakistan's star batter and captain Babar Azam.
Rohit is also just 37 runs away from surpassing Martin Guptill as the highest run-getter in T20Is. Guptill and Virat Kohli have been locked in the see-saw battle for the past couple of years, where either of the two players have held the record for most T20I runs.
This is Rohit's chance to march ahead of the other two batters in this three-way fight.
It will be interesting to see who finishes at the top of the tree when all three batters have hung their boots up.
