Rohit Sharma scored his third double hundred in One Day Internationals in the second game against Sri Lanka in Mohali. By achieving this incredible feat, Rohit became the first cricketer with these many double tons in ODI. No other cricketer has even two double tons.

On reaching the century, Rohit Sharma acknowledged his wife who was in the stands cheering for him and team India, wiping her tears. This is how Sharma celebrated his first century:

Incidentally it was the Rohit and Ritika's second anniversary and this seemed like a perfect gift for Ritika from Rohit.

A world record and a captain's knock during his wedding anniversary. And a fitting reply to those who trolled him.

After a massive defeat in the first game at Dharamshala, Rohit Sharma and his men were under enormous pressure to score big in the second game. India gave a target of 392 to the Sri Lankans bouncing back nicely after a horrendous game.
