Rohit Sharma records

New Delhi, July 09: Hitman Rohit Sharma, purring through the gears in conditions that have the best batsmen salivating, guided India to an emphatic seven-wicket win to ensure the tourist's victory in this T20 series.

the swashbuckling Rohit Sharma came to the fore, smashing an unbeaten 100 off 56 balls to single-handedly take India to a 2-1 series win.

Rohit's knock came in a crucial point as India were chasing a steep total of 199. He whacked 11 boundaries and five monstrous sixes during his blistering knock. In the due course of his emphatic inning, 'Hitman' also shattered several records.

Rohit became the second Indian men's cricketer, next only to Virat Kohli, and the fifth batsmen overall to score more than 2000 runs in T20 Internationals.

The 31-year-old Rohit Sharma now has five T20 hundreds, most by any Asian batsmen. Jamaican opener Chris Gayle leads the chart with 21 centuries.

Rohit is now the only batsman to have scored three hundreds in all three formats of the game.
