[VIDEO] Rohit Sharma Shocks Thunderbolt Mark Wood With A Thumping Six

When India was summoned to bat against England in a thrilling cricket match in Lucknow, they were put in a difficult position. There was reason for worry over the problems of the top-order batsmen, including Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer, as the scoreboard showed a dismal 40-3 after only 11.5 overs. Though things were not going as planned, the batters were keen to increase the score on a dry Lucknow track.

Rohit Sharma, who is known for his aggressive batting style, took charge early on during the early losses. He demonstrated perfect strokeplay, which further solidified his reputation as one of the most successful openers in contemporary cricket. Rohit remained unflinching as wickets dropped all around him, determined to steady the innings and give India the much-needed consistency.

In a phase of consolidation, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul established a crucial partnership of 91 runs. By taking measured chances and effectively rotating the strike, the two batters complimented one another with skill. Despite not being a very impressive effort, Rahul’s 39 off 58 balls was vital in helping India build a strong base.

The English fast bowler Mark Wood bowled a misdirected ball with his fourth delivery in the twenty-fourth over. When the ball deviated down the leg side, Rohit Sharma, who was 52 runs out at the time, wisely took advantage of the situation. Rohit swivelled to flick the ball off his hips with amazing reflexes and hand-eye coordination. With perfect timing, he closed his bat at the ideal time to take the ball over the boundary.
