The world of cricket is witnessing the Rohit rampage of Pakistan in the World Cup. The hitman is leading India from the front with his 53rd career half-century in the match at the Gujarat Cricket Association Stadium.
Pakistan were bowled out for 191 runs when the bowlers confirmed the decision of the Indian skipper who won the toss and sent the opponents into bat.
The spinners took four wickets and the pacers took six wickets. Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya and Mohammad Siraj took two wickets each.
Chasing a paltry total of 192 runs, India quickly lost opener Shubman Gill and star batsman Virat Kohli but the captain kept the team going.
Rohit scored 86 runs off 63 balls with six sixes and six fours. At a strike rate of 136.51, Rohit returned with a catch to Iftikhar Ahmed off Shaheen Shah Afridi.
Along with Rohit’s smashing firework, the old matches played against Pakistan are again part of the discussion. The stats that are being discussed are the complete dominance of Rohit, who always finds the best total against Pakistan.
Hitman has scored three half-centuries and two centuries in the last six ODI matches, including the 2023 World Cup.
The statistics from the Asia Cup held in Dubai in 2018 are part of the discussion. Rohit Sharma completed his half-century in the match at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, which was awarded by Bhuvneshwar Kumar with the ball. Rohit scored 52 runs off 39 balls.
India and Pakistan also faced each other in the Super Four after their group stage encounter. Rohit shone by scoring a century that day. India overcame the target of 238 runs raised by Pakistan with 63 balls to spare on the strength of Rohit and Dhawan’s century.
After that, Rohit and Pakistan came face to face in the 2019 World Cup. Rohit produced one of the best performances of his career in the match at the All Trafford Stadium in Manchester. Rohit left the field after scoring 140 runs off 113 balls.
Rohit only faced Pakistan in the first match of the 2023 Asia Cup. Rohit scored 11 runs in 22 balls. But the match was abandoned due to bad weather.
Virat Kohli and K.L. Rahul and Rohit Sharma did not do too badly in the Super Four match with six centuries. Rohit scored 56 runs off 49 balls.
Later, this half-century scored in the 2023 World Cup was also written as part of the Rohit vs Pakistan battle.
