Rohit Sharma completed his century in 157 balls
IND vs ENG: The third match of the five-match Test series is currently being played between India and England in Rajkot. In the match, Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bat first. However, his decision proved counterproductive and the host team lost 3 wickets within 10 overs.
After losing 3 wickets for 33 runs, Ravindra Jadeja provided full support to captain Rohit Sharma. Both the batsmen are currently present at the crease and have made a partnership of more than 100 runs.
Rohit Sharma looked in full form in the Rajkot Test after failing to make a mark in the first two Test matches. He not only stopped the fall of the wicket but also put India in a strong position. Batting intelligently, he scored the 11th century of his Test career. After scoring a century, the entire dugout stood up and congratulated him.
He stood firm and took responsibility when his team needed him most. However, he did not celebrate openly and just raised his bat and greeted everyone. He knows that right now The work is not completed. There itself Ravindra Jadeja fully supported the captain and scored the 21st half-century of his Test career. Jadeja looks in good touch and is hoping that he can convert this innings into a big innings.
Mark Wood gave two back-to-back blows
For England, Mark Wood gave initial shocks to Team India by taking two wickets in two consecutive overs. Mark Wood dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal (10) in the fourth over. After this, in the sixth over, Shubman Gill was sent to the pavilion without opening the account. Tom Hartley got one wicket. He took the wicket of Rajat Patidar (5), who came to bat at number four.
It’s almost as if when Rohit went out to bat someone pointed at the Eng team and said “Sir ye 11 log garden mein ghum rahe hai” 😉 #IYKYK #INDvENG pic.twitter.com/zyKShg749r

The way he’s batting it feels like he’s been batting here for ages. That’s Rohit Sharma for you!

Big names unavailable. Team in trouble at 33/3. Questions being asked about his personal form. And that’s when Rohit chooses to silence everyone with the bat.#IndvEng

Rohit Sharma has been brilliant. This partnership is pulling India out of trouble. With an inexperienced batting lineup to follow, they need to sustain this momentum. #INDvENG
