After his Man of the Match performance, Rohit appeared on the Chahal TV, hosted by leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, and revealed the mantra for hitting sixes.
“When I hit three consecutive sixes, I tried to go for six maximums. But when I missed the fourth one, I decided I will take singles,” said Rohit while speaking about his three consecutive sixes which he hit against off-spinner Mosaddek Hossain.
Hindustan Times: ‘I tried to go for six sixes but...’ Rohit Sharma reveals what changed his mind
This is a piece of news paper report published online in India. It is a quote from the player.
I have searched on Google to find out whether the word maximum can be used as plural noun but I could not find it. I think it is an abstract noun and so it can not be used in the plural number.
Here is a link.
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/maximum
The link shows that maximum is usually singular and its plural form is maximums. I think in the sentence it should be six sixers. I am doubtful of the use maximums in the sentence.
** can the word maximum be used as a plural noun as in the given sentence**?
