The stand-in-skipper was in full flow during his innings in the second match at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee International Stadium and smashed the bowlers all over the park enroute his century. He made 111 from just 61 deliveries, which involved eight boundaries and seven mammoth sixes that helped India set the West Indies a near-impossible target of 196 in 20 overs.


Playing his 86th  T-20 international match, the right-hander was in tremendous form and notched up his century in just 58 balls with a boundary off West Indies skipper Carlos Braithwaite. He had earlier scored T-20 centuries against South Africa, Sri Lanka, and England.

Earlier in the match, Rohit also had become the highest run-getter for India and second overall in shortest format overtaking Kohli, who has been rested for the series. Kohli though has played almost 14 matches less for India.

Sharma has scored 2203 runs, while Kohli has amassed 2102 runs but while Rohit took 86 matches to get there, Kohli has so far played only 62 matches. Suresh Raina ( 1605 runs in 78 matches), MS Dhoni (1487 runs in 93  matches) and Yuvraj Singh (1177 runs in 58 matches ) are the top-five T-20 run-getters for India.

The other records he broke during the course of his milestone innings are the most 50-plus scores made by a player in the T-20 format. Here also, he overtook Kohli, who has 18 50-plus scores, while Rohit brought up his 19th 50 plus score in T-20 Internationals.
