Indian skipper Rohit Sharma set multiple records with a stunning century in IND vs AFG 3rd T20I at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Wednesday.
After registering ducks in first two T20Is, pressure was on Rohit Sharma, who made his return to T20I after a gap of 14 months.
However, the Indian skipper had saved his best knock for the third and final T20I as he plundered boundaries at will.
The 36-year-old raced to his 5th T20I century in 64 balls with a boundary.
With this ton, Rohit Sharma also surpassed Suryakumar Yadav and Glenn Maxwell to become the player with most centuries in the shortest format.
