#2. Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma has emerged as one of the greatest openers of the modern era in limited overs cricket. The Indian vice-captain has already scored 8944 runs in ODI cricket, and is fourth in the list of batsmen with most ODI centuries with 28 hundreds to his name. The ‘Hitman’ has found a special liking to the Australian bowling attack.

Sharma has featured in 37 innings against the Kangaroos in ODI cricket and scored 2037 runs at an average of 61.72, including 7 hundreds and 8 fifties. Rohit scored his first ODI double hundred against Australia when he smashed 209 at the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore in 2013.

He has also hit a stunning 93 sixes against Australia in international cricket, and if he can score seven more sixes in the upcoming ODI series, he will achieve the rare feat of becoming the first Indian batsman to score 100 sixes against a single opponent in international cricket.
