4 Big Landmarks Rohit Sharma Can Reach In IPL 2020

IPL 2020 is less than a month away as the fans gear up to witness the biggest cricket league of the planet for the 13th consecutive year. This time, IPL will be played in the month of September for the first time. Also, the final will happen on Tuesday and not on Sunday. The fans might not be allowed to attend matches because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
However, the Indian cricket universe is excited for IPL 13 and Rohit Sharma will look to help Mumbai Indians retain their IPL crown this year. Sharma has been very successful in this competition and here are the four milestones he could attain IPL 2020.
Most Man of the Match awards for an Indian player

 
MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma have won 17 Man of the Match awards in IPL history. Dhoni and Rohit both will be leading their teams and the captain who performs the best will take the record for the Most Man of the Match awards for an Indian player in the IPL.
First Mumbai Indians batsman to score 4,000 runs

Mumbai Indians have had some legendary names in their squads over the years. Players like Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting have been a part of this team, but Rohit Sharma has been their leading run getter with 3728 runs. He needs 272 runs more to become the first MI batsman to score 4,000 runs.
Only player to win IPL as a captain and a player outside India

Rohit Sharma was a part of the Deccan Chargers team in IPL 2009 that went on to lift the trophy. 11 years later, IPL is happening outside India, but unlike 2009, the UAE will host the tourney and not South Africa. If Rohit wins the final this year, he will become the only man to win two IPL finals outside India, first as player and then as a captain.
Most Sixes by an Indian batsman

MS Dhoni has hit 209 sixes in IPL history. The Hitman is right behind him with 194 sixes. If he brings his ‘A’ game to the table, he could well achieve the milestone of being the Indian batsman with most sixes in IPL.
