Finally, Rohit Sharma stood tall in White Jersey to make things happen for the Indian National Cricket Team. Of late, he was under pressure to knock runs for India, as he was regularly failing to stay in the team. Regarding the same, he lost his place in England tour as well, however, BCCI tried to give one last chance in Australia.

It seems like Mumbai batsman has done enough to secure himself in the side. He knocked a superb 63* in the first innings before India declaring the innings. Meanwhile, Twitterati showers words of praise on the flamboyant batsman.

India declared for 443/7:

Rohit Sharma was never that successful in red-ball cricket as he was in the shorter formats. However, trusting his ability, BCCI selectors kept on giving him the chances to play for India in the longer version of the game.

Though he was decent in the Indian soil, failed to replicate the same in South Africa. Though he was decent than the rest, his poor dismissals led to his ouster from the team that toured England for the 5-match Test series.

However, he was impressive in the limited overs format, which pushed BCCI to give him yet another shot in the Test format. Finally, after a  long time, he came up with a decent score to speak for him in the Test format.

He remained unbeaten on 63* before India declaring the innings. It was a surprising call from the Indians, as they declared with three wickets left in the bank. It would have been great for Rohit, as he can whack it out when he was given the orders to go for a kill.
