Key Insights
Sri Lanka’s Charith Asalanka scored the first ODI century of 2024. His knock of 101 which came against Zimbabwe included 4 massive sixes.
As mentioned earlier, Rohit Sharma had a cracked of 2023, as he went bonkers from the word go. He will look to continue his onslaught in 2024 in whatever limited games he will feature in.
Apart from Sharma, UAE’s captain Muhammad Waseem will also be eager to showcase his six-hitting prowess. Last year, Waeem garnered 47 huge sixes with his willow, so he has the skills to topple the experienced players.
