Ind vs SA – 1 test : Opener Rohit Sharma’s century in both innings

Bhushan Garud :Rohit Sharma, who played his first Test as an opener from the Indian team, proved himself against South Africa in the absence of Lokesh Rahul. Rohit, who scored 176 runs in the first innings, also scored a century in the second innings. Rohit Sharma has won many records while playing as an opener. In the meantime, he has lost another trumpet in his head.

Rohit was given the chance to be the opener after failing to finish fifth-sixth in Test cricket. Rohit took the gold by chance. Rohit not only scored a century and a half in the first match, but he also hit a hundred in the second innings. This led to a unique record in Rohit’s name. Rohit became the first batsman to score a century in both innings while playing for the first time in Test cricket.

Rohit Sharma was the second opener to score a century in both innings. This was done by Sunil Gavaskar earlier. He also made it to the list of scoring centuries in both innings of the match. Gavaskar had scored 3, Dravid 2 and Vijay Hazare, Ajinkya Rahane and Virat Kohli once in both innings. Rohit’s name is also included in it.
