50*(40) vs 🇿🇦
One of his most underrated knocks. A do-or-die game for India where they were reduced to 61/4. First-ever time he walked out to bat in a T20I and he scored a splendid fifty which helped India post 153 on board.

High pressure game. India were 87/3 with only MS Dhoni left to come. A young Rohit flourished at the SCG batting in tandem with the Master Blaster. India won comfortably by six wickets.

Chasing 185, India were 12/2 and constantly kept losing wickets. In a game where no top batsman managed to get to double figures, Rohit fought a lone battle against the mighty Aussies.

Chasing a mammoth total of 360, Rohit amassed a magnificent hundred as he batted alongside Dhawan and Kohli. India registered their highest successful run-chase in ODIs and they won by a thumping nine-wicket margin.

Series decider. Rohit went bonkers with the bat, especially in the last few overs. Call it stick cricket or Hitman at his absolute best with a then record 16 sixes in an innings. First double ton!

A much awaited Test debut at Eden Gardens but better late than never. Receives his cap from Sachin Tendulkar. India reeling at 83/5. Not only does he slam a century on debut but also takes the hosts to a total in excess of 450.

Walking out to bat in difficult conditions with India already 10/3. His stupendous batting helped India recover from the early slump. The visitors lost but not without a fight.

An innings of 264 runs from just 173 balls on his comeback after more than two and a half months. 33 boundaries and 9 sixes. Extraordinary knock and probably the greatest we may ever witness in the near future.

First-ever World Cup century. India seemed to be in a spot of bother with the score being 115/3 on a good MCG pitch. Rohit accelerated after his century and helped take the total in excess of 300. Man of the Match.

Highest individual score by any cricketer against Australia in Australia. The last time India played at WACA. But it had become more of a batting friendly ground. Nevertheless another top knock for Rohit.

Big game, semifinals of the Champions Trophy. 265 to chase, could've been a tricky total but Rohit's stupendous batting ensured India won it comfortably by nine wickets as he stayed unbeaten.

A record third double century, first one as captain for Rohit. This time he carries the bat. India dominate with the bat as they put up a total of 392/4. For a change, Sri Lanka cross Rohit but still fall way behind India's total.

A 35-ball hundred for Rohit, joint fastest record in T20 internationals. He got out after 12.4 overs which goes on to say that if he stayed till the end, Gayle's 175 record in T20s was in danger. That sort of a lightning knock.

Series decider and a target of 199. Again Rohit Sharma stood out with the bat scoring a scintillating ton. His third in T20Is. Together, he and Pandya helped India through the finish line with an over to spare.

Chasing 289 for victory at SCG, India are left reeling at 4/3. Rohit plays a brilliant knock and brings India closer to the target but falls. Fourth century for him in Australia, unfortunately all in vain.
