Rohit Sharma’s Outstanding ODI Record at Perth: 8 Sixes, 25 Fours, 245 Runs

Rohit Sharma holds an exceptional batting record at the WACA Stadium in Perth, making it a ground where he consistently excels. In four ODI matches played at Perth, Rohit has scored a total of 245 runs with an astounding average of 122.5, the best by any player at this venue. His innings include a magnificent century and a half-century, featuring 25 fours and 8 sixes that highlight his aggressive but controlled batting style.

His highest score at Perth is an unbeaten 171, achieved during the first ODI of the 2016 Australia tour. In that innings, Rohit smashed 7 sixes and 13 fours, helping India post a competitive total of 309 runs. Although Australia won the match, his performance was a testament to his skill, especially on a fast, bouncy pitch known to challenge batsmen.

 

Rohit's natural affinity for the Perth pitch lies in his excellent handling of short-pitched deliveries, superb cut and pull shots, and ability to adapt to fast conditions. As this October 2025 series approaches, all eyes will be on Rohit to replicate his successful batting and help India clinch victory in his favorite ground.
