Unique Cricket Records: Former Indian legend Virender Sehwag set many records in international cricket. If you focus on Test, be it a triple century or the king of sixes. But recently Joe Root made headlines by breaking Sehwag's record in triple century. Now Veeru's new record is in danger. But this time it is not Joe Root but Team India captain Sehwag who has reached the threshold of the record.
Rohit can become number-1
Talking about the records of sixes in international cricket, the name of 'Hitman' i.e. Rohit Sharma is seen on the top. The fear is such that he has even defeated Chris Gayle. Now he is on the verge of leaving Virender Sehwag behind in Test cricket. Rohit Sharma can become the batsman to hit the most number of sixes by breaking Sehwag's record of sixes in Tests. Now the question is whether Rohit will be able to achieve this feat in the very first match of the Test series against New Zealand starting from October 16 or not?
How far behind is Rohit Sharma?
Talking about Rohit Sharma, he has played 61 tests so far in which a total of 87 sixes have been recorded in his name. At the same time, Sehwag played 104 test matches in his career, in which he hit 91 sixes. Rohit is just 5 steps away from Sehwag's record of sixes. Rohit will become number-1 as soon as he hits 5 sixes.

The second name is that of Brendon McCullum, who has 107 sixes in his name in 101 test matches. It will be interesting to see how high Rohit Sharma succeeds in going in this record list.
