All facets of the team have displayed exceptional quality and consistency, propelling them towards success.
Rohit Sharma, in particular, has been a standout player in the Super 8 and semi-final matches against Australia and England, scoring crucial half-centuries.
Let’s delve into the performance of the 37-year-old in ICC knockout matches.
Rohit Sharma’s ICC Knockout Record
Rohit has participated in 18 ICC knockout matches, with 16 in white-ball cricket. His first knockout game was in the T20 World Cup 2007 against Australia.
In ODIs, he has played 8 knockout matches starting from the 2013 Champions Trophy. He made a significant impact with a match-winning hundred against Bangladesh in the 2015 ODI World Cup knockout match.
His standout performance includes a century in the Champions Trophy 2017 semi-final against Bangladesh, leading India to the final against Pakistan.
While his T20 World Cup knockout record has been average, he aims to improve it in the 2024 final against South Africa. His half-century against England in the semi-finals was his first in T20 World Cup knockouts since 2007.
However, his record in the World Test Championship Finals against New Zealand and Australia has been disappointing, with no half-centuries as India faced defeat in both matches.
