India senior opener Rohit Sharma's class has been stamped in his maiden Test appearance itself as he scored centuries in both innings of the first Test at Vizag.


The 32-year-old was adjudged Man of the Match for his brilliant innings of 176 and 127 that helped India take a 1-0 lead in the three-match Test series against South Africa.

Rohit has made and broke many records in the ongoing home Test series against South Africa. Following his two tons in the first Test, Hitman failed to continue his form in the second Test as he could manage only 14 runs before being dismissed by South Africa pacer Kagiso Rabada.

BCCI took to Twitter to share a video in which South African players can be seen congratulating Rohit after his dismissal in the first Test.

However, Iceland Cricket quickly took to Twitter and trolled the BCCI for not showing highlights of Rohit's innings in it.

"Wow. Most sixes in a match, twin centuries, twin stumpings. Once again we thank the BCCI for these wonderful highlights: No Hits from Rohit," the tweet read.


Rohit Sharma made a remarkable comeback into the Indian Test squad. The 32-year-old became the first batsman to hit two consecutive centuries on Test debut as opener during Vizag Test.

Not only that, Rohit showed his natural attacking instincts to smash 13 sixes to shatter former Pakistan captain Wasim Akram's record of maximum number of sixes in a Test match.
