Rohit Sharma, the Indian opener, is making new records, with his bat in the shortest formats of the game. He was in exceptional touch in the recently concluded ODI and T20 series against Australia.

He was giving an interview to a female presenter after blasting bowlers to all parts of the park. Gayle openly asked her for a date which didn’t go down well with the lady and the millions watching over their TV sets.
