ENG vs IND: Rohit Sharma Scores His Highest Overseas, But Fails To Get Century

By IANS News August 12, 2021 • 23:25 PM View: 2073

Rohit Sharma's century drought overseas seemed to be coming to an end on Thursday before England pace bowler James Anderson sneaked one through his defence to rattle his stumps on the first day of the first Test. Sharma, batting on 83 and looking solid at the time, had to return to pavilion with his highest score overseas but still without a century.

Sharma, who has shored up India's top order by putting on strong opening wicket stands ever since he has joined the team as opener has scored seven half-centuries away from home in 22 Tests so far.
