Indian opener Rohit Sharma has managed to smash the ball outside the stadium for a monstrous six in the ongoing third ODI against Australia in Indore.
Having batted first, Australia managed to put an impressive 293 on board in their 50 overs and India are asked to chase a massive 294, but both Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane got the hosts to a splendid start.
Rohit Sharma was the aggressor in the opening stand as the Mumbai batsman has consistently scored boundaries in the power-play overs. However, the most unbelievable hit came when Rohit hit his third six of the day in Kane Richardson’s bowling.
The 30-year old had looked in good touch since the start and had anticipated the length of Kane Richardson’s ball well before he delivered it. Charged down the wicket, Rohit found the meat of the bat in his slog, and the ball kept on going.
The ball hit the top of the roof and went outside the stadium and could have easily been well above recorded 103m, if not for the ceiling in the arena.
Here is the 103m Rohit Sharma’s six:
