ICC World Cup 2019: List of records Rohit Sharma created with his 102 against England

India fell 31 runs short of Australia’s total despite Rohit Sharma fighting out with his 25th century in the ODI format. Rohit got off to a slow start on a pitch that began to grip a bit. He added 138 runs with Virat Kohli for the 2nd wicket and 52 more with Rishabh Pant for the 3rd wicket. For once, Rohit couldn’t convert his century into a big one as he got out very soon. He finished with a 109-ball 102 which contained 15 fours but no sixes before getting out in the 38th over; the first ODI hundred for Rohit without hitting a six.

Here are all the stats and numbers recorded with his century against England on Sunday:

1 – Rohit Sharma is the first Indian to score two centuries while chasing in the World Cup. Overall, he is the 7th player with multiple tons in CWC chases. Kumar Sangakkara in 2015, Joe Root and Shakib Al Hasan in 2019 are only other players with multiple tons while chasing in the same World Cup edition.

2 – Rohit scored his 2nd century in an ODI against England in England. He is the first Indian with multiple ODI tons against the English team in their own backyard. Four Indians scored an ODI century each against England in England before Rohit.

3 – Number of centuries for Rohit Sharma in this tournament; the 5th player with as many as three tons in a single World Cup edition. Mark Waugh in 1996, Sourav Ganguly in 2003, Matthew Hayden in 2007 and Kumar Sangakkara (4) in 2015 were the other four players.
