This time the eyes will be on the world record
Team India’s captain Rohit Sharma can make a special record in the domestic T20 series against Sri Lanka. He’s pretty close to it. If Rohit is able to hit 12 sixes in this series, then he will become the batsman to hit the most sixes in T20 International cricket.
