Don't want to jinx him, but guy is in beast mode and covering for the below-par Kohli. Let's appreciate what we've got
All I hope now is for 1 big knock against Aussies this WC

Note that Kohli has not received any chances so far as IIRC so has done a good job

I hope he scores another 100 against the puny lankans.

Didn't he make 10+ threads on rohit proving him as minnow basher & we should drop him for pant/rahul (as opener)

I find these two dunderheads to be usually posting against me (I can expect some sore loser to be going around like this but I don't even recall stepping on their tails)

Happens when a teen age kid gets a new tool and does not quite know how best to use it. Add to that the likelihood of this buffoon possibly getting dropped on his/her head. Nothing else can explain such deranged and delusional fantasies and those 60 threads every hour before the WC.

Runs are ultimately runs. These dropped chances are merely footnotes (coping mechanism) for people affected by it.
Who was the best batsman in Ind-Eng test series - Kohli? How many drops for his 590 odd runs?

Opposition fluffed the chance offered which great players capitalize on while average players give the next chance.

I am only suggesting that Kohli performance w/o any drops (from what I recall) is very good 

 

PS Note that Rohit has received abnormally high chances though in white ball cricket. Even during the match, they showed a graphic on his drops

Forget turning the page, he is going to write his own book :)

Epic is being written !!!.. May be the OP should open a thread for Dhoni haha

Mohali semi final Tendulkar dropped 4 times. He won man of the match. These face palm excuses to undermine LEGENDARY STUFF of Rohit sharma are comical at best.

[Number]

The other day against WI he got a howler when he had just started hitting and was looking good.

These things get balanced by themselves.

5 world cup hundreds, 4 in a winning cause. World records broken, India in the group stages get the result of 7-1. Rohit sharma did his job.

 

I'm not expecting him to hit any 100s in Semis or Final simply due to law of averages and pressure games, he could surprise us as he has done already and score another 100, but i'll take a 50-75 score. We have rahul in form, kohli, pant, pandya and the rest can be done by dhoni and DK. We may also play jadeja. 

 

So well done rohit sharma, and all the best for the knockout games :)

tributes pouring in on Twitter

[vvvslaxman]

Even opposition fans go gaga over him :)

"Rohit hit ah drive over extra cover off ah quick, for 6. It was phorquene amazing. De ease, the quick hands, de power, de timing. Dat is all TriniD will sey."

Where is @zen

[SRT100]

Would love to know India's probability of winning when Hitman scores a century?

[Suhaan]

Would have loved two of his tons in KOs

Besides all this,played well..

Now ,being main batsman of the team ,needs to continue his rich form in KOs

[Mirpur express]

I get sense Rohit has given it his all as it's a world cup. In every innings he wants big scores.

 

[Mirpur express]

People talking about dropped catches. Luck favours the brave as they say. Rohit makes his own luck. If someone dropped a mediocre cricketer they won't go on to make a century.
