Rohit Sharma on Verge of T20 World Cup Run-Scoring Record and India's Title Hopes

India's captain, Rohit Sharma, stands on the cusp of a historic milestone as his team prepares to face South Africa in the T20 World Cup final on Saturday. With just six runs separating him from surpassing Virat Kohli's record of 1,216 runs, Rohit Sharma is poised to become the highest run-getter in T20 World Cup history. This achievement would coincide with India's potential triumph in the tournament, marking their first T20 World Cup title under Sharma's leadership.

Rohit Sharma's impressive T20 World Cup record boasts 1,211 runs, including 248 runs in the ongoing edition. His consistent performances have yielded 12 half-centuries and a century across the tournaments. In the recent matches, he has played a pivotal role with two crucial fifties against Australia and England, making him the third-highest run-scorer in this tournament.

Under Sharma's guidance, India has reached their third consecutive ICC final in less than 13 months. Despite falling short against Australia in the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup finals, India has remained unbeaten in this tournament, showcasing their resilience and skill under Sharma's leadership.

The final on Saturday presents India with an opportunity to end their 11-year-long ICC title drought, with their last victory coming in the 2013 Champions Trophy. Rohit Sharma aims to join MS Dhoni as the second Indian captain to lift the T20 World Cup trophy.
