2nd ODI: Rohit Slams 32nd Century As India Clinches Series Over England With Four-wicket Win (ld)
Captain Rohit Sharma: Captain Rohit Sharma broke a long lean run with the bat by hitting a sparkling 119 and lead India to a four-wicket win over England in the second ODI at the Barabati Stadium on Sunday.
Rohit’s masterly 32nd ODI century, laced with 12 fours and seven sixes, along with Shubman Gill’s 60 and handy knocks from Shreyas Iyer (44) and Axar Patel (41 not out) helped India chase down 305 with 33 balls remaining and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
But seeing a rampaging Rohit getting back to his best self with the bat must have brought in tons of relief to him and many important personnel in Indian cricket, especially with the Champions Trophy starting later this month.
