Rohit Sharma joins MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli in 200 match mark, gets jersey from Sachin Tendulkar.

Rohit Sharma played his 200th match for Mumbai Indians,

Sachin Tendulkar gifted him with an iconic jersey. Rohit is the most successful captain in IPL. He is also a senior member of the MI team for more than a decade. Hitman played his first match for Mumbai in 2011. Rohit Sharma created a big record by playing against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Wednesday. Rohit set the precedent of playing 200 matches for Mumbai Indians courtesy of the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. He also touched Dhoni and Kohli's records. Mumbai Indians faced Gujarat Titans in their first match of the 2024 IPL season. In that match, the hitman played his 199th match in IPL for Mumbai. And on this day, he set the precedent of playing 200 matches in the opposite position of Sunrisers. Earlier in the history of IPL, only Virat Kohli and Mahendra Singh Dhoni scored 200 for one team.
And for this achievement, the former MI captain gifted a wonderful jersey to India's legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar. To make Rohit's 200th match for Mumbai Indians unforgettable, Sachin presented him with a wonderful jersey. Rohit is the most successful captain in IPL. He is also a senior member of the MI team for more than a decade. He played his first match for Mumbai in 2011. Mumbai Indians won five titles under his leadership. It was Rohit who made a big contribution for Mumbai. The video of Sachin gifting this jersey was shared by Mumbai Indians on their X handle. And it quickly went viral.
It does not end here. Another record-making opportunity is in front of Rohit. Rohit has taken a total of 99 catches in his IPL career. One more catch against Hyderabad will get the former Mumbai captain into the 100 club. Naturally, Rohit is waiting to set a big example in that regard.

Incidentally, Rohit has scored 5084 runs in 199 matches for Mumbai Indians since 2011. He is the most run-scorer among Mumbai cricketers. But this time Rohit's role has changed. Five-time IPL winning captain Rohit has been replaced by Hardik Pandya as the captain of Mumbai. So this time Rohit is playing only as a batter.
