As Rohit Sharma celebrates his 36th birthday, it is time to take a look at his top-five knocks in IPL.

  1. 109 not out vs Kolkata Knight RidersRohit brought up his maiden IPL century during a match against Kolkata Knight Riders in 2012.

His brilliance with the bat, however, went in vain as Kolkata Knight Riders emerged victorious by seven wickets.
  3. 94 vs Royal Challengers BangaloreThe Hitman was at his explosive best in this IPL duel against Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2018. Mumbai Indians, thanks to Rohit Sharma’s blistering 52-ball 94, registered a mammoth total of 213 in that fixture. Mumbai prevailed by 46 runs.
  4. 32 not out vs Kolkata Knight RidersThese were the early days of Rohit Sharma in the IPL when he played for Deccan Chargers under the leadership of Adam Gilchrist. In an exciting run chase, Rohit scored 32 runs off 13 balls to earn a thrilling final-ball win for his side against (you guessed it right) Kolkata.
  5. 80 vs Kolkata Knight RidersKolkata Knight Riders bowlers suffered once again at the hands of Rohit Sharma. In an IPL 2020 match in Abu Dhabi, the Mumbai Indians captain slammed three boundaries and six sixes to score 80 off 54 balls.
