By Shubham Shah July 09, 2019 • 12:45 PM View: 996

July 9 (CRICKETNMORE) Having already broken the record for the maximum number of centuries in a World Cup edition, Indian opener Rohit Sharma will be looking to break another World Cup record when he comes out to bat against New Zealand in the first semi-final of the ongoing tournament at the Old Trafford on Tuesday.

Having scored 647 runs in the eight matches so far in the ongoing World Cup, Rohit needs 27 runs more to become the highest run-getter in a single edition of the showpiece event, surpassing Sachin Tendulkar's tally of 673 which he scored in the 2003 World Cup in South Africa.
