After the batting debacle (all out for 112) in Dharamsala during the first ODI, India was back to their best in Mohali.
Captain Rohit Sharma led the way with an incredible world record innings of 208 not out against Sri Lanka in the second ODI at IS Bindra Stadium on Wednesday.

Thanks to opener Rohit’s third double century in the 50-over format, India posted a mammoth 392/4 in 50 overs.
His knock of 208 not-out came off 153 balls with 13 fours and 12 sixes. The moment became more special for Rohit as his wife Ritika Sajdeh was also present in the stadium on the day of their second marriage anniversary.
Well, when Team India reached the hotel after beating Sri Lanka by 141 runs, Rohit’s teammates Ajinkya Rahane and Yuzvendra Chahal smeared cake on their captain’s face.
How can we let our double centurion @ImRo45 go without cutting a 🎂 but @ajinkyarahane88 and @yuzi_chahal were not going to stop at that. #TeamIndia #INDvSL pic.twitter.com/QP27ZWexsD
