Team India’s captain Rohit Sharma continued his red-hot form in the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 as he showed aggressive intent right from the word go. Along with his opening partner Shubman Gill, while chasing a target of 257 runs, the hosts started with attacking cricket. In the same vein, the ‘Hitman’ showed his power-hitting prowess during his 48-run knock, thereby missing a well-deserved fifty by a whisker.
Moreover, post his dismissal, Rohit Sharma looked quite dejected when he got back into the dressing room as he was looking ominous with the way he was playing his trademark pull shot with sheer ease. But some bowling brilliance from the youngster Hasan Mahmud, did him as he fell prey to hitting through the backward square leg side but failed to achieve enough height along with playing the hook shot fine enough to beat the Bangladesh fielder, towhid Hridoy.
