Indian Vice Captain Rohit Sharma is in the shape of his life. He breaks records of entertainment in the ICC 2019 World Cup. 5 centuries – the drummer record in a single edition of the World Cup – most races (647), you call him, he has it all. Tuesday, in the first semifinal of the ICC 2019 World Cup between India and New Zealand, Rohit has the opportunity to rewrite the record book once again. he's distant from Indian captain Virat Kohli and stays firmly on Rohit. This should remain the same when India faces New Zealand on Tuesday in Manchester.
Rohit is about to break two World Cup records and both belong to Sachin Tendulkar. Rohit, who has 647 races in just eight rounds in this World Cup, has only 27 races against Tendulkar, eclipsed, to become the top scorer of the race in a single edition of the world competition.

The Rohit-Kohli couple
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are currently ranked No. 2 and No. 1 in the ODI drummer rankings respectively (ODI drummer ICC classification, updated on June 1, 2019). Their number in the post-CWC 2015 ODI proves why they deserve to be ranked as high.
They scored the most points after the 2015 CWC in ODI (and are the only two with more than 4,000 points in this period).
Rohit Sharma with 20 centuries and Virat Kohli with 19 centuries are the dominant centurions of this period.
For more than 50 scores, Virat (40) is the leader, followed by Rohit Sharma and Joe Root (37 each). The duo not only has excellent individual records, but also fantastic partnerships for IDOs.
Among couples who have beaten together at least 50 times, their average partnership is the highest.
