Rohit Sharma has made history by becoming the No. 1 batter in the latest ICC ODI rankings at the age of 38. He moved past his teammate and ODI captain Shubman Gill to take the top spot.

The former India captain was in brilliant form during the recent ODI series against Australia, scoring 202 runs in three matches at an average of 101. His performance included an unbeaten century in the final match of the series. Rohit also won the player of the series award for his exceptional show with the bat while opening the innings.

Rohit Sharma, known as ‘Hitman’, is an Indian cricketer who plays for Mumbai and the Indian cricket team.

Rohit Sharma Becomes World No. 1 ODI Batter at 38

He has 781 rating points to his name, 17 clear of the second-placed Ibrahim Zadran of Afghanistan. Meanwhile, Gill has slipped two places to third position in the rankings with 745 rating points. Virat Kohli found his form again in the third and final ODI against Australia, scoring an unbeaten 74 while chasing 237 runs.

However, his duck in the second match cost him some points, and he has now slipped to sixth place with 725 rating points. Shreyas Iyer, who didn’t get a chance to bat in the last game, has still moved up to ninth in the latest rankings update. Rohit Sharma has become the No. 1 batter in the ICC ODI rankings for the first time in his long and successful career. He is now the fifth Indian to reach the top spot after Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni, and Shubman Gill.

This is a big achievement for Rohit, as he has reached the No. 1 position at the age of 38 years and 182 days, making him one of the oldest players to do so.4
