Yes, Rohit Sharma proved himself again in the ODI match by scoring 3rd Double Ton in ODIs. Rohit Sharma batted out Sri Lanka single-handedly in the 2nd ODI in Mohali on Wednesday to bring back Team India on level terms. Rohit belted his third double ton in ODIs and remained unbeaten at 208, helping Indian record 392 runs.

The 30-year-old, though, build up his innings in the beginning, when 'Gabbar' Shikhar Dhawan was pummeling the tourists on the opposite end. Rohit boldly batted through giving Dhawan the required support. It was just not Dhawan's day as he departed for a 67 ball 68, and then came rookie Shreyas Iyer who notched up his maiden ODI fifty. The 23-year-old stood up to the expectations and played a handsome knock of 88.

Rohit Sharma brought his century in 115 balls and seemed determined to play till the last. The Captain in a sudden surge of adrenaline changed his gear and commenced an onslaughter on the Lankan bowlers. The Hitman brought his next 100 runs in just 36 balls to hammer his 3rd ODI double ton. Rohit furnished his innings with 13 boundaries and 12 sixes.

After a drab 1st ODI, Rohit led from the front to turn around things for India, and Twitterati erupted with Kudos: The Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar tweeted, "Way to go my friend. Always a joy to watch you bat :-))."
