In an electrifying IPL match held at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium, Rohit Sharma, affectionately known as the 'Hitman', stole the show with a breathtaking century.
Facing the formidable Chennai Super Kings, Rohit played a pivotal role in Mumbai's batting, scoring a robust 105 runs off just 63 balls. His innings were decorated with 11 fours and 5 towering sixes.
This match wasn't just about a single game's heroics; it marked a milestone in Rohit's T20 career. He became the first Indian to hit over 500 sixes in T20 cricket, joining the elite global list of batsmen who have achieved such a feat. With this century, Rohit also entered an exclusive club of players who have scored over 1000 fours and 500 sixes in T20s, a record previously held by only the legendary Chris Gayle.
Despite Rohit's spectacular performance, Mumbai Indians couldn't clinch victory. Chasing a daunting target of 206 set by CSK, they fell short by 20 runs, managing only 186/6 in their 20 overs. Rohit's innings, however, will be remembered as one of the highlights of this IPL season, demonstrating his exceptional skill and tenacity on the cricket field.
