Watch - Rohit Sharma Smashes An Incredible Six Off Jason Holder

The vice-captain of the Indian team Rohit Sharma once again delivered a blistering knock for the Indian team when it mattered the most. The flamboyant batsman displayed his class in the middle with his brilliant knock across the park. He took West Indies’ bowlers to the cleaners with his incredible hitting all over the park. During his knock, he smashed a stunning six off Jason Holder even after losing his balance in the middle.

Though he bowled a brilliant wide-line delivery, Rohit Sharma was smart enough in getting underneath the ball despite losing his balance in the middle.
