2013-2018: Rampant Rohit Sharma's magic run, October 30, 2018: The Times of India

Skipper Virat Kohli may be stacking up ODI hundreds by bucketload in the last few years, but he has remained a step behind Rohit Sharma in terms of 'highest individual score of the year by an Indian'. Rohit is holding the record since 2013, the year he scored his first (209) of the three double centuries in one-day internationals.

With 162 off 137 balls, a record-extending seventh 150 or more score for him, against West Indies in the fourth ODI of the five-match series at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Monday, Rohit has overtaken the lead from Kohli for this year too. India captain was leading the chart through his 160 not out against South Africa in Cape Town.

YEAR	Score vs Opponent
2013	209 vs Australia in Bengaluru
2014	264 vs Sri Lanka in Kolkata
2015	150 vs South Africa in Kanpur
2016	171* vs Australia in Perth
2017	208* vs Sri Lanka in Mohali
2018*	162 vs West Indies in Mumbai

In 2013, the India's highest two individual scores was made by Rohit - 209 and 141* vs Australia in Bengaluru and Jaipur respectively.

While in 2014, Rohit scored the highest-ever individual score in ODIs - a 264 against Sri Lanka in Kolkata. That year the second best by an Indian was 139* by Kohli against the same opponent.

Similar to 2013, the top two highest scores by Indian batsmen in 2015 came from the bat of Rohit - a 150 against South Africa in Kanpur and 138 vs Australia in Melbourne. Kohli too scored a 138 that year against South Africa in Chennai.

With a 171 not out against Australia in Perth, Rohit again topped the chart in 2016, which was followed by Kohli's unbeaten 154 against New Zealand in Mohali.

And last year, Rohit slammed his third double hundred, a 208* against Sri Lanka in Mohali, which was way ahead of the second best of 150 by Yuvraj Singh against England in Cuttack.
