Rohit dominates in scoring a century against ‘Army’ countries; ‘Hitman’ showed what even Sachin could not do

Indian team has given more than one cricketer to cricket. It also includes the legendary player Rohit Sharma. Rohit is currently captaining the Indian team. While carrying out this responsibility, he is seen leading the team to victory as well as breaking records. Rohit has performed strongly in the first innings of the ongoing India vs Australia first Test match. Therefore, it will not be an exaggeration to use the term ‘leading from the front’ for him. In the meantime, he has created a special record in his name by scoring a century.

What is Rohit’s record?
Rohit Sharma has blasted in the first Test of the India vs Australia team which started from Thursday (February 9) in Nagpur. Rohit came out to bat for India after Australia were bowled out for 177 runs in the first innings. He lasted until the third session of the second day. However, he was dismissed on the fourth ball of Pat Cummins’ 81st over. This time, Rohit faced 212 balls and scored 120 runs. He scored these runs with the help of 2 sixes and 15 fours. As soon as he scored this century, Rohit became a Vikramvir.

Leading from the front 👊
