Indian skipper better known for his batting Rohit Sharma entered record books on Friday when he hammered a 35-ball century in the second T20I at Indore which equalled the recored of South Africa’s David Miller by scoring the fastest century in the slam-bang format. The stand-in captain had missed out on a big score in the first T20I at Cuttack, but India still crushed Sri Lanka by 93 runs. The victory margin was 88 runs in Indore.

Rohit’s blitz at Indore saw India amass the joint second-highest T20I total of 260/5. Sri Lanka’s task has been made tougher due to the rich form of KL Rahul, who has scored 61 and 89 after getting to open in Shikhar Dhawan’s absence. Kusal Perera’s 37-ball 77 was the lone bright spot for the visitors in Indore, in a game where they used seven bowlers lost by 88 runs. Thisara Perera and Nuwan Pradeep top the charts but their economy rate is over 10.

The Wankhede Stadium pitch will be batting-friendly, but India will be aware they had lost their previous contest here to New Zealand in October despite Virat Kohli’s 31st ODI century. It will be India’s final outing at home before they head to tours of South Africa, England, Australia and New Zealand in 2018-19.
