Rohit Sharma, India's Best Opener And An IPL Legend

Rohit Sharma in the last few years has firmly established himself as India's best opener in all formats and his record speaks for himself. The man is a run machine and loves to score quickly and consistently.

Already a modern-day great in limited-overs internationals, when it comes to the IPL, Rohit is no less than a legend. His record as player and skipper proves that.

Statistics may not tell the whole story, but they do not lie either and he has over 5000 runs at an average in excess of 30 and a strike rate above 130.

He has won 6 IPL titles, 5 of them as a skipper and that is really amazing and not a thing to be trifled with.

By the time Rohit calls time on his IPL career, he will have left a legacy to live up to for future generations.

The T20 format is one where the 34-year-old excels and the IPL has been witness to that for over a decade.

Rohit has found a place in the IPL history books and it is to his credit that he is still going strong at 34.

The man is far from done and expect him to be around for many future editions of the IPL.
