Playing against Sri Lanka in Mohali, Rohit created one of the greatest records scoring another double hundred, which is the 3rd of his ODI career. This is the most number of double-tons scored by any batsman in ODI cricket. Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag, Chris Gayle and Martin Guptill have scored one double hundred each.

In 2013 Rohit scored his first double hundred against Australia in Bangalore. In the following year, he scored another double hundred playing against Sri Lanka in Kolkata. Scoring a monstrous 264 from 173 balls, Rohit became the first player to cross 250 runs in ODIs and his score of 264 is still the highest individual score in ODIs.

His 3rd double ton came in 2017 playing at Mohali where he played an unbeaten knock of 208 in 153 balls. It doesn't look like this record is going to be broken anytime soon.
