Rohit Sharma had a bad run of luck in his previous innings. Questions were raised on the Indian opener if he was still as good. But all the questions came to a halt after he slammed 176 runs in the first innings during India vs South Africa, 1st Test Day 4. Now, Sharma notched up his fifth hundred in the second innings of the match which is currently underway at the VDCA Stadium in Vishakhapatnam. The opener brought up his century from 133 balls hitting nine fours and four sixes. Needless to say that the netizens, hailed his feat. Rohit Sharma Uses Cuss Word at Cheteshwar Pujara For Not Running a Single, But Ben Stokes Takes a Swipe at Virat Kohli, Here's Why (Watch Video).
Talking about the game, the South African team got bundled out on the score of 431 runs as they chased a total of 502 runs on the board. His century would be quite vital to the total that the Indian team would post in the second innings. It is quite obvious that Sharma’s second consecutive century has silenced all the questions around him. The netizens posted tweets praising the Indian opener.

It's one thing missing from even Sachin Tendulkar's resume.
Say what you will about Rohit Sharma (and most do), you can't deny he's proved right all those who said: "He's too good to be sitting on the bench." #INDvSA

Which idiot said Rohit Sharma couldn't bat in Test cricket? Don't fall prey to what they say. Open your eyes and look. India has not had such a technically perfect batsman for years. To me those that drop him from Test cricketers should get their peckers nipped.
