8 coincidences between Sachin Tendulkar and Rohit Sharma that you never knew

#3. Coincidence when India scored 300

In the early stages of cricket, hitting a 300+ score in ODI was supposed to be a winning target and it happened once in a blue moon as bowlers were dominating which was the major reason for the same.

For 2 decades since the ODI setup began, India never had a 300+ ODI score. India reached the 300+ score for first time in ODI’s in 1996 and Sachin won the Man of the match for his century where he scored 118.

India won the match by 28 runs against the arch-rivals Pakistan. India became the first team to score a ton of 300’s when they scored 392-4 against Sri Lanka which happened last year. Rohit made a mockery of weak Sri Lankan bowling as he raced to his 3rd double century and eventually India won the match by a big margin of 141 runs. Like Sachin, He was also awarded the man of the match for his 208 of 153 balls.
