Rohit Sharma played a Vijay Hazare Trophy match for Mumbai after more than 7 years on Wednesday (December 24) and made it a special one for him and his fans by scoring a century in just 62 balls. The century in just 62 balls by Rohit during Mumbai’s Vijay Hazare Trophy Elite Group C match against Sikkim at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur helped him break his previous record of a 63-ball century, which he made against Afghanistan during India’s 2023 ODI World Cup league match in Delhi on October 11.
Rohit, who is the world’s No. 1 ODI batter, faced a total of 94 balls on Wednesday and, with the help of 18 fours and 9 sixes, scored 155 runs. By playing a knock of 155 runs in Mumbai’s 8-wicket win, Rohit equalled David Warner’s world record of most
150+ scores in List A cricket.
Warner played 210 List A matches from 2007 to 2023 and scored 8886 runs. He registered scores of 150+ nine times in the 50-over format of the game, and now Rohit also has nine 150+ scores to his credit.
Rohit has crossed the 150-run mark eight times in 279 ODI matches for India and one time in the Vijay Hazare Trophy as a Mumbai player.
