Rohit Sharma powered his way to a 32nd One-Day International (ODI) ton during the second match of the three-match series against England. Breaking away from his poor run of scores, the Indian skipper motored along to bring up the milestone in style. Rohit was the aggressor all along while batting alongside Shubman Gill in what was a rollicking opening partnership by the two.
Rohit welcomed Gus Atkinson with a four and a six to kickstart his innings on a positive note. A sublime maximum by Rohit over cover in the very next over propelled his ODI six-tally to 333; making him the second-highest six-hitter in the format. The second boundary which Rohit stroked off Adil Rashid’s first over of the game brought up his 58th fifty in the format. However, he was far from done at that point.
The dismissals of his opening partner and Virat Kohli seemed to have no effect on him, as Rohit continued to press forward to the landmark. Rohit reached his ton via an outrageous hit in the stands towards the long-off region, with India comfortably placed on 186 for the loss of two wickets. Interestingly, the power-packed ton off 76 deliveries was Rohit’s second-fastest in the ODI format.

If Rohit Sharma can bat like this at the Champions Trophy, India become a different beast to play against. He has looked in command in this innings.
