India are set to host New Zealand for a three-match ODI series beginning on Sunday, January 11 in Vadodara. After impressive performances in recent bilateral

assignments, former Indian captain Rohit Sharma will once again be in the spotlight as he looks to continue his fine form on home soil and etch his name deeper into the record books.

Rohit has shown remarkable consistency since returning from a long break from international cricket. Against Australia, he struck a fluent half-century and followed it up with a magnificent century. His rich vein of form continued in the ODI series against South Africa, where he registered two crucial fifties. To further maintain his rhythm, Rohit also represented Mumbai in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, scoring a commanding century.

\n\n\n

With this form, Rohit is on the verge to break a few more records in the upcoming ODI series. Today, CricTracker has a look at three milestones the Nagpur-born can break in the three-match series.

Here are top 3 records Rohit Sharma can break in IND v NZ series

3. 14,000 List-A runs

Rohit Sharma is on the brink of becoming the fifth Indian batter to score 14,000 runs in List A cricket. The veteran opener needs just 87 more runs to reach the landmark. Currently, he has amassed 13,913 runs in 352 List-A games since making his debut for West Zone in the Deodhar Trophy in 2006.

Although his early career was marked by inconsistency, his transformation into an opening batter reshaped his legacy, making him one of the most destructive batters in world cricket.

2. Overtake Jacques Kallis in ODI run charts

Rohit is also close to surpassing South African legend Jacques Kallis in the list of all-time ODI run-scorers. He requires only 63 runs to go past Kallis, who finished his ODI career with 11,579 runs. Rohit currently has 11,516 runs to his name, and crossing this milestone would elevate him to eighth place on the list of highest ODI run-scorers in history.

With 33 centuries in one-day cricket and a stellar average of 49.21, the 38-year-old's achievements in the format remain exceptional.

1. Fourth most Player of the Match awards for India in ODIs

Another significant milestone within Rohit’s reach is becoming the fourth Indian player with the most Player of the Match awards in ODIs. He is currently tied with Yuvraj Singh at 27 awards. Only Sachin Tendulkar (62), Virat Kohli (44), and Sourav Ganguly (31) stand ahead of him. A standout performance against New Zealand could see Rohit break this tie and further cement his legacy in Indian cricket.
