Replying to Haters
They trolled Rohit for his fitness before WC19.
Rohit became Highest run scorer with 5 💯.
Trolling Rohit for his fitness now.
And Rohit has scored first IPL 50 already.
Never seen a player who trolls his haters with the bat the way Rohit Sharma does. #MIvsKKR

After failing to perform in the first clash against Chennai Super Kings, Rohit Sharma came in like a man determined and played one of his best IPL knocks. The MI skipper smashed 80 runs off just 54 deliveries and coincidently also became the second players in the competition’s history to hit 200 sixes, after MS Dhoni.
Banking on a brilliant Rohit Sharma performance, Mumbai Indians put on a score of 195/5 in their 20 overs. KKR will have to bat well if they are to chase the mammoth target and get their first win of the competition. Meanwhile, MI are also searching for their first win in IPL 2020.
