NEW DELHI: Skipper Virat Kohli could also be stacking up ODI masses by bucketload in the previous couple of years, but he has remained a step at the back of Rohit Sharma in relation to 'easiest person ranking of the year by an Indian'. Rohit is conserving the record since 2013, the year he scored his first (209) of the three double centuries in one-day internationals.
With 162 off 137 balls, a record-extending 7th 150 or extra ranking for him, against West Indies in the fourth ODI of the five-match series on the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Monday, Rohit has overtaken the lead from Kohli for this year too. India captain used to be main the chart through his 160 no longer out against South Africa in Cape Town.
In 2013, the India's easiest two person scores used to be made by Rohit - 209 and 141* vs Australia in Bengaluru and Jaipur respectively.
While in 2014, Rohit scored the highest-ever person ranking in ODIs - a 264 against Sri Lanka in Kolkata. That year the second one best possible by an Indian used to be 139* by Kohli against the similar opponent.
Similar to 2013, the highest two easiest scores by Indian batsmen in 2015 came from the bat of Rohit - a 150 against South Africa in Kanpur and 138 vs Australia in Melbourne. Kohli too scored a 138 that year against South Africa in Chennai.
With a 171 no longer out against Australia in Perth, Rohit once more topped the chart in 2016, which used to be adopted by Kohli's unbeaten 154 against New Zealand in Mohali.
And closing year, Rohit slammed his third double hundred, a 208* against Sri Lanka in Mohali, which used to be way ahead of the second one best possible of 150 by Yuvraj Singh against England in Cuttack.
