IPL 2026: Rohit Sharma scripted history on Sunday as he became the first batter to score 6000 runs for Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League. The landmark moment came during Match 20 of Indian Premier League 2026 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at the Wankhede Stadium, when Rohit smashed a six off Jacob Duffy to reach the milestone. The veteran opener needed just six runs before the game and got there in style with a pull shot early in his innings.
Rohit, who joined Mumbai Indians in 2011, now has over 6000 runs for the franchise in IPL history, underlining his longevity and consistency at the top level. He has been one of the pillars of Mumbai’s success over the years, leading the side to multiple titles while also delivering with the bat.
Among Mumbai Indians batters, Rohit sits comfortably at the top of the run charts, well ahead of names like Suryakumar Yadav and Kieron Pollard. His tally includes two centuries and 40 half-centuries, along with more than 500 fours and over 250 sixes.
