India's limited-overs batting ace Rohit Sharma is eyeing more double hundreds in ODIs in future. He posted a tweet on the third anniversary of his third ODI double hundred which came against Sri Lanka in 2017.

Rohit responded to a tweet that was a throwback post regarding his double ton three years back. He had smashed 208* in 153 balls, was included with 13 fours and 12 sixes. This was Rohit's first score of 100-plus as an ODI skipper and his third double hundred.

The 33-year-old wrote "More to come ????" and hinted to fans that a new beginning is awaiting in 2021.

Rohit suffered a lot because of injury this year. He had to go back to India mid-New Zealand tour without playing ODIs and Tests, and now he got a hamstring injury during IPL 2020 which affected the Australia tour.

Talking about his other two double hundreds, the first one came in 2013 against Australia where he finished on 209. The second one turned out to be the highest ODI score overall for any batsman. His 264 at Kolkata against Sri Lanka came just one year after the first double hundred.
