Rohit Sharma has said goodbye to Test cricket. Rohit Sharma, who played the last match against Australia at the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, gave information about his retirement a few days before the team was announced for the tour of England. He told about his retirement by posting a story on social media, but do you know that even though his form was the concern at this time in red ball cricket, a wonderful world record is recorded at his name, which is related to his Test centuries.
Actually, Rohit Sharma is the only batsman in the world, who has scored more than 10 centuries in his career and has won all centuries. Rohit Sharma has scored a total of 12 centuries in Test cricket and Team India has won the match in which he has scored a century. There are two more players in the world who won the team in those matches in their career, but it is worth noting that the number of Test centuries in the career of those players was 5 or 6. These players were from Australia.
Australia’s Warwick Armstrong scored 6 centuries in his Test career and won the team in all those matches. At number three in the list is former Australian veteran batsman and coach Darren Lehman, who scored 5 centuries in his Test career and won the Australia team in those five centuries. In this way, it can be said for Rohit Sharma that he has done a wonderful feat in Test cricket, because in today’s time it is not possible for anyone to break this record.
