Rohit Sharma's wife Ritika was stunned when he got out!
Rohit Sharma played a brilliant innings of 76 runs in the Champions Trophy final match against New Zealand. This is Rohit's biggest innings in the final of any ICC tournament. Rohit was looking in good rhythm but in the 27th over, he lost his wicket while playing an unnecessary shot. His wife Ritika Sajdeh, sitting in the stands, was also disappointed with his getting out like this.
Chasing 252 runs, rohit sharma and Shubman Gill made a century partnership for the first wicket. Gill was out after scoring 31 runs, after which virat kohli also returned to the pavilion after scoring just 1 run. After this, rohit sharma batted cautiously for some time and then got stumped out while playing an unnecessary shot.
On the first ball of the 27th over bowled by Rachin Ravindra, rohit sharma tried to go ahead and hit a big shot. He had gone too far ahead, he could not read the ball and the ball went straight into the hands of keeper tom Latham. Latham did not make any mistake and Rohit Sharma was stumped out. In this innings of 76 runs in 83 balls, rohit sharma hit 7 fours and 3 sixes.
Made a record together with Shubman Gill
Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill shared a 105-run partnership for the first wicket. This is the third century partnership played for the first wicket in the final in the history of ICC Champions Trophy. At the top of this list are sourav ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar, who had scored 141 runs for the first wicket in 2000.
