13 years have gone by, a zillion memories have been made, a young man has transformed into a legend. Through the runs, through the wins, through the defeats, through the IPL titles, it’s been one special journey. Let’s look back at his milestone matches in the MI jersey, when they came, how they went..

Over these years, his favourite opponent have unsurprisingly been the Kolkata Knight Riders, both in terms of runs and results. He’s scored 924 runs in 26 games against them, including six fifties and a century, and has won 18 out of those games. 

He becomes only the third player in the world – Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni being the first two – to have played 200 IPL games for one franchise. Rohit Sharma in the MI Blue and Gold isn’t just a player, Rohit Sharma in the Blue and Gold is an emotion. As he takes the field in Hyderabad now against SRH, here’s to a zillion more of these memories..
