India vs Australia 2017, 5th ODI: 5 reasons why India won at Nagpur

#1. Rohit Sharma’s brilliant knock

Rohit Sharma blasted 125 off just 109 balls

As mentioned in the previous slide, the openers did a terrific job by chasing down more than half the target by themselves. Rahane was dismissed for 61 but Rohit Sharma was still at the crease.

The Mumbai Indians skipper reached his century and was given fine assistance by Virat Kohli who was playing a rather patient innings.

Sharma scored 125 before being dismissed by Adam Zampa with India only 20 runs away from victory. Sharma was rightfully adjudged the Man of the Match.
