After Rohit”s knock, Yuvraj Singh tweeted that it would definitely put him as one of the top contenders for Man of the Series award. Pietersen, who is backing the English side, replied that it wouldn”t be the case if England wins the World Cup.
Yuvraj Singh then tweeted that England should be first thinking of qualifying for the semifinals before arriving at any conclusions and clarified that he is speaking only about the MOS award, but not on which team would be ending up as champions.

Rohit has broken several records with this innings, namely the maximum sixes by an Indian player surpassing MS Dhoni. He also levelled the record for maximum centuries in a world tournament (4) with Sangakkara (2015 Wc).
Let’s qualify first and then talk about wining 😅 and I’m talking about mos trophy not winning !

It is to be noted that win in today”s game will finalize a semi-final berth for the Indians, whereas the English side should win the game against New Zealand in the next fixture for further progress in the tournament. Else the Bangladesh-Pakistan encounter would be viewed as a virtual knockout game depending on which the fixtures change.
