The 36-year-old looked in control and reached the triple-figure mark in 220 balls with a boundary. He displayed grit and resilience to tackle the West Indies bowling attack. Rohit took his time and batted patiently in the first session of the second day. He went for all the loose deliveries and smashed boundaries at regular intervals to keep the scoreboard moving.
