As Rohit Sharma sent the Sri Lankan bowlers on a leather hunt en route a 35-ball 100, the joint-fastest in T20Is along with David Miller.
He kept going after the century as well and it seemed like the unthinkable could happen, Chris Gayle‘s record of unbeaten 175 looked in danger but eventually on the 43rd ball, he was foxed on a slower delivery but not before scoring a magnificent 118 runs. He forced his way to 12 boundaries and ten sixes scoring with a stupendous strike rate of 124.
Twitterati went absolutely crazy and couldn’t stop praising Rohit, here are some of the best reactions:
This guy is just something else. Awe, admiration, respect

Everytime you think you have seen it all, you see something incredible. Today, Rohit Sharma has shown us that. I admit I am gasping.

Rohit Sharma could actually score a double hundred in T20 cricket. Not even joking. So. Much. Time. Not power, pure timing… effortless this… arguably the greatest six hitter of the T20 era, if not all time!! #IndvSL

Players to score two centuries in T20Is:
