 "AUS vs IND Rohit misses out on century, puts India ahead in revenge match")
Rohit Sharma, with an amazing 40-ball 92 against Australia in India's last Super 8 game in the T20 World Cup 2024, put the Indian team in an advantageous position in what is being touted as the 'revenge game' for the Indian team which lost to Australia in the final of the ODI World Cup 2023.
It is a must-win game for Australia and if India manages to beat them, they might get knocked out depending upon the result of the Afghanistan vs Bangladesh match later in the day (Tuesday according to IST).

Had Rohit hit the century, he would have become the second Indian to score a century in a T20 World Cup game. He could have joined the only other centurion in T20 World Cups from India- Suresh Raina in an elite list.
