Captain Rohit 2 steps away from breaking Dhoni’s special record
Rohit Sharma IND vs ENG 2nd Test: India has strengthened its hold in the second Test of the five-match series against England. After the first double century of young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, Team India is leading in this match due to the brilliant swing bowling of Jasprit Bumrah. India scored 28 runs without loss in five overs in their second innings before stumps on the second day of play, taking a total lead of 171 runs. At the time of stumps, captain Rohit Sharma was batting on 13 runs and Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored 209 runs in the first innings, was batting on 15 runs. Now Rohit is going to have a chance to break a big record of Dhoni on the third day of the game.
Rohit 2 steps away from breaking Dhoni’s special record
Rohit Sharma has played 56 test matches for Team India so far. During this period, Rohit Sharma has scored 3828 runs in 96 innings, which includes 77 sixes. If Rohit hits 2 sixes in the second innings of the second Test match being played against England, then he will leave MS Dhoni behind in terms of hitting the most sixes for India in Tests. MS Dhoni has hit 78 sixes while playing 90 test matches for Team India.
Virender Sehwag’s big record in danger
The record of hitting most sixes in Tests for India is in the name of Virender Sehwag. Virender Sehwag had hit 91 sixes while playing 104 test matches for India. If Rohit wants to leave Virender Sehwag behind in this record, he will have to hit 15 more sixes in the Test. In such a situation, this series being played against England is going to be very important for Rohit Sharma.

Virender Sehwag- 91 sixes
MS Dhoni- 78 sixes
Rohit Sharma- 77 sixes
Sachin Tendulkar- 69 sixes
