Rohit Sharma, India's opener who recently broke into the top-five in the world Test rankings, yet again proved why he deserves to be so high up the rank ladder. Rohit scored a seamless 127 (256) at the Oval, which he brought up in style with a huge six!

Rohit touched a series of milestones enroute this brilliant century, and even became the first foreign batter to score a hundred in all three formats of the game in England.

The cricket fraternity took to Twitter to congratulate the Hitman on his first overseas century.

A Very Very Special wish

Well said!

Great timing, indeed!

In case you missed it!

We agree!

Word, sir!

We witnessed a masterclass

Cricket fans too could barely control their excitement, and bombarded the platform with their messages of congratulations and appreciation!

The tweets have more than summed up our emotions after watching this beautifully scripted century from Rohit. Indeed a good day to have watched Test cricket!
