From a struggling cricketer, Rohit Sharma had transformed into one of the best by 2016. The champion batsman slowly started breaking many of the ODI records. He became the only cricketer to score four double centuries in ODI history. The same reflected in T20I cricket, as he became the only cricketer to score four centuries in T20 Internationals. The elegant right-hander also broke Sachin Tendulkar's record of scoring most 150+ scores in ODI cricket history.

He is just behind Kohli in the leading run-scorers list with 3241 runs at an average of 66.14, along with 14 centuries, which is the second best in ODI cricket. Rohit scored most T20I runs during this period, with 1459 runs in 48 innings, and all 3 out of his 4 T20I centuries came up during this period.

These numbers clearly sum up the legacy of Rohit Sharma, who has slowly become a white ball legend.
