Ton-Up Rohit Sharma Roars Back To Form Before Champions Trophy As India Crush England To Clinch Series
Under pressure with questions over form and mounting retirement speculations, skipper Rohit Sharma silenced it all with a vintage 32nd century, firing India to a dominant four-wicket series-clinching victory over England in the second ODI in Cuttack on Sunday. Opting to bat on a belter, England were bowled out for 304 in 49.5 overs with left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja (3/35) continuing his stranglehold over the visitors. The 37-year-old Indian skipper made the chase a lopsided affair, returning to his World Cup 2023 best with impeccable timing and effortless strokeplay en route to his 90-ball 119 -- his century No 32 in ODIs that came just in time ahead of the Champions Trophy in less than two weeks.
