Rohit Sharma has an exceptional record in One Day International (ODI) games played in Australia. Sharma has established himself as one of the finest openers in Indian cricket and India's most successful visiting batters in ODIs against the Australia national cricket team at their den. The 38-year-old will be back in action once again on Australian soil during the three-match ODI series, starting on Sunday, October 17, in Perth. For those unversed, Rohit is only active in ODI cricket. Earlier this year, Sharma bid adieu to the Test format. Previously, the 38-year-old  announced retirement from T20Is after lifting the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 title in Barbados. ‘Lots of Talks About Him Putting On Weight, Few Images of Him Coming Out of the Airport’ Abhishek Nayar Reveals Rohit Sharma’s Fitness Journey Ahead of IND vs AUS 2025 ODI Series (Watch Videos).

Since then, he has not played any form of cricket. The first ODI against Australia will mark Rohit's 500th international match in Indian colours. With Sharma returning in Indian colours, all eyes will be on him, and in this article, readers can find out about the former captain's record in ODIs on Australian Soil and against Australia.
