Rohit Sharma went past teammate Virat Kohli for most hundreds by a visiting batter on Australian soil on Saturday during the third and final game of the series at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Returning to the national fold after more than seven months, Rohit scored a fifty in the second ODI in Adelaide. He reached his three figures for the 33rd time in ODIs with a single off Adam Zampa in the 33rd over.
With this hundred, Rohit now has six centuries on Australia soil, going past Kohli and Sri Lankan Kumar Sangakkara’s record of five tons each. This was also Rohit’s 50th international hundred for India. He has scored five in T20Is and 12 in Tests, having retired from both the formats.
In addition, Rohit also equalled Sachin Tendulkar’s record of most ODI hundreds against a single opponent. Both Rohit and Tendulkar have nine ODI hundreds against Australia. Kohli also has 10 and nine hundreds against Sri Lanka and West Indies respectively.
