Mumbai Indians opener Rohit Sharma made history by becoming only the second player in the Indian Premier League to reach the milestone of 250 appearances. Sharma achieved this remarkable feat during Mumbai Indians' match against Punjab Kings on Thursday, April 18th at the Mullanpur Stadium.

Following closely behind Sharma is Dinesh Karthik, who holds the second position in the list of players with the most IPL appearances. Interestingly, Karthik and Rohit, who share a close friendship off the field, were tied at 249 matches before this game. In the third position is Virat Kohli, with 244 games under his belt.
