The blistering performance that India’s skipper Rohit Sharma produced earlier, scoring 92 runs on 41 balls with seven fours and eight sixes, was the high point of the team’s innings.
India’s innings got off to a bad start as their best batsman, Virat Kohli, went back to the pavilion empty-handed. Nevertheless, Sharma continued to play aggressive cricket despite being dismissed.
Mitchell Starc took an over to dismiss Sharma for 29 runs, including four sixes and a four. This overmarked the beginning of Hitman’s onslaught on the Australian bowlers, which continued until the finish of his innings.
The 37-year-old’s innings was cut short by Starc’s yorker just as he was about to reach his well-deserved century. After his knock was over, the 37-year-old had smashed the most sixes in T20 World Cup history and was the top run scorer in T20Is.
