**Rohit Sharma’s Century Leads India to Dominant ODI Victory**

Cuttack, India – Rohit Sharma returned to form in spectacular fashion, smashing a 119-run century off 90 balls to power India to a comprehensive nine-wicket victory over England in the second ODI at Cuttack. This win gives India an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.

Sharma’s knock, his 32nd ODI century and first in 16 months, silenced critics and showcased his remarkable batting prowess. He credited his success to a revised approach, breaking down his innings into manageable segments. He praised his opening partnership with Shubman Gill (60 runs), highlighting Gill’s composure and strong performance. Gill also lauded Sharma’s innings and the overall team effort.

India chased down England’s total of 304 runs in 44.4 overs, with Sharma’s century laying the foundation for a comfortable win. Despite fifties from Joe Root and Ben Duckett, England’s efforts were overshadowed by Sharma’s brilliance. The final ODI will be played in Ahmedabad on February 12th.
