India posted a target of 337 for Pakistan in the much-awaited encounter at Manchester. The top order blitz helped the side to post such a total on the board and the focus now shifts towards the bowlers. Rohit, Kohli and Rahul had no mercy towards Pakistani bowlers and kept smashing them to nook and corners of the stadium.
Rohit Sharma Surpasses This Record of MS Dhoni In International Cricket
Rohit Sharma”s prolific century paved way for putting up such a huge score on the board. His 140 runs included 14 boundaries and three huge sixes at an amazing strike rate of 124. Irrespective of pace or spin, his innings comprised a blend of destruction and composure and this played a vital role in setting up the huge target. In the process, he also broke the record for maximum sixes by an Indian player in International cricket.

This century is his second one of the tournament and he is now the second (319) in the table for maximum runs just behind Aaron Finch (343 runs).
