Rohit Sharma has been in the cricketing circuit for the past 11 years. Earlier, he was in and out of the Indian team due to inconsistent performances. Since 2013, he has opened the batting with Shikhar Dhawan and formed an exceptional combination for India.

Rohit's 264 against Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens is the highest score for an individual in one ODI innings. He has scored 7454 runs from 193 ODIs at an average of 47.78 and a strike rate of 88.67.

Rohit's innings are usually well placed and he suddenly erupts after having relatively slow starts. He has had 5 scores of 150-plus after 2014 and certainly is the top candidate for achieving this milestone. He is the only batsman to have scored three double hundreds.

The elegant right-hander could have reached the milestone before anyone but his slow starts have affected his scores. If he gets settled into his groove, then Rohit is a very dangerous batsman to bowl to. However, at times, he has had a tendency of getting out for single digit scores and is vulnerable to accurate deliveries around the off-stump.

Rohit has the backing of an entire nation to achieve the impossible. He has to acknowledge the fact that he has the license to start scoring freely right from the first over because India has a more than capable middle order who can take control of the game even if he's dismissed. If he continues with his scoring spree, he can become the first batsman to breach the 300-run mark.
