Popularly known as 'Hitman' and 'Ro-Hit' for his aggressive batting style, the Mumbai Indians skipper is the only cricketer in the world with three double-centuries in ODIs to his name - 209 vs Australia in 2013 in Bengaluru, 264 vs Sri Lanka in 2014 in Kolkata and 208 not out vs Sri Lanka in 2017 in Mohali.
The right-hander also holds the record of highest individual ODI score - 264. He achieved the feat against Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens in 2014.
Rohit is only the third Indian cricketer with centuries in all three formats of the game. The other two being Suresh Raina and KL Rahul.
