Who is better than Sachin Tendulkar Rohit or Virat ?

Tendulkar REACTS on Rohit Breaking His WC Record Ahead of Ind vs Pak Clash

Indian skipper Rohit Sharma capped off a record-fest outing in New Delhi to seal India's second straight win at the One Day International (ODI) World Cup 2023 on Wednesday. The veteran Indian opener played a masterful knock as his century sealed India's eight-wicket win over Afghanistan in match No.9 of the ODI World Cup at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Skipper Rohit notched up his 31st century to smash Sachin Tendulkar's World Cup record.

Rohit's 31st ton was his seventh century in the ODI World Cup. Rohit surpassed batting legend Tendulkar, who previously held the record for most World Cup centuries. Before Rohit tormented the Afghanistan bowlers, Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah bagged four wickets to prevent Hashmatullah Shahidi and Co. from registering a par total. Bumrah recorded his career-best figures (4 for 39) in the ODI World Cup.

Taking to X (formerly known as Twitter), batting legend Tendulkar lauded Bumrah and Rohit for their superlative efforts at the ODI World Cup. “Two fine performances by Bumrah and Rohit, who were well supported by the bowling and batting units respectively. The 2 games have seen different players contributing and that sets things up nicely for the 14th of October. Look forward!," Tendulkar said. Two-time champions India will meet 1992 winners Pakistan in its next match at the ODI World Cup.
