6, 6, 4, 6, 0, 6: Rohit Sharma Dispatches Mitchell Starc, Wife Ritika Sajdeh Reacts. Watch

The India vs Australia T20 World Cup 2024 match will be remembered for a long time for Rohit Sharma's terrific hitting against the likes of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, and others. The Indian cricket team skipper struck eight sixes and seven fours on way to score a 41-ball 92. Though Rohit Sharma went after all the bowlers, he was particularly brutal towards one - Starc. When the left-arm pacer was inducted into the XI, the general thought was that it was to counter the India captain's weakness against the left-arm pacer. 

What, however, happened was the exact opposite. In the third over by Starc, Rohit hit four sixes and one four. There was a wide in the over too as it yielded 29 runs. Rohit's wife Ritika, who was present in the stands, was naturally elated. 

Rohit Sharma combined brute force with elegance in his 92 off 41 balls as India amassed 205 for five against Australia on a belter in their final Super Eights fixture of the T20 World Cup here on Monday.

On the best batting surface of the tournament, Australia put India in to bat and Rohit made the most of the conditions with a sublime knock comprising seven fours and eight sixes including a recording extending 200th in the format.

It was the start of something special when Rohit flicked Mitchell Starc for four in the first over of the game.

Virat Kohli (0) at the other end mistimed a pull off Josh Hazlewood in the following over to be caught in the deep.

Walking the talk once again, Rohit never took the foot off the pedal and went hammer and tongs against Starc, whose second over yielded as many as 29 runs, his most expensive in the format.
