India's vice-captain Rohit Sharma has justified his tag as one of the best limited overs batsmen thus far at the ongoing World Cup. The 32-year-old has scored four centuries in seven innings, and his current tally of 544 runs makes him the highest run-getter in the tournament.
As India qualified for the semi-finals, England footballer Harry Kane sent his best wishes to Virat Kohli for the rest of the World Cup on Twitter. He also shared a video of him playing cricket with the Indian captain during their recent meeting at Lord’s.

In their last match against Bangladesh, India's openers added 180 in 29 overs but the team ended with only 314 for 9. A similar story unfolded against England too, when the middle order couldn't finish strong after Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma departed.
