Historic! Hitman Rohit Sharma becomes 1st ever Indian captain to score century in all 3 formats

Hitman Rohit Sharma on Friday played a fine captain’s innings, leading the team from the front and put on a fantastic show against the Aussies bowler. With his grit, determination and responsibility, the Indian skipper hit his 9th Test century and became the first ever Indian captain to score century in all 3 formats.

He hit a four to score his 9th Test century and still holds on tight in the driver’s seat (till this piece was published). Cricket lovers are going gaga over the tremendous form of the Hitman with praises coming from all quarters.

Smiles, claps & appreciation all around! 😊 👏

This has been a fine knock! 👍 👍

Take a bow, captain @ImRo45 🙌🙌
