Well, the Hitman Rohit Sharma played a very similar shot on his way to a century, which has made Twitter extremely nostalgic!
Remember the India Vs Pakistan from the 2003 World Cup? Remember, Sachin effortlessly Akhtar for a six over backward point?
Yeah, he is!
There’s the upper cut! #RohitSharma is taking the legacy of that shot against Pakistan forward #IndiaVsPakistan

Reminded me of Sachin.
Worlc cup match. A Pakisthani fast bowler. An Indian opening batsman. Wide. Fast. Short. Upper cut. Six. ❤️

Is it 2003 or 2019 ? #IndiaVsPakistan #RohitSharma #WorldCup2019

Brilliant 💯 from @ImRo45 , one of his finest innings. That late-cut six reminded me of Sachin Tendulkar’s late-cut 6 in Centurion at #cwc03. Hope he gets a double hundred 🤞🏻#INDvPAK #RohitSharma #CWC19 #MenInBlue

Sachin Tendulkar and Sehwag hit the same six at same spot against same opposition, against same opposition and yes in the world cup 2003.. Rohit just hit the same six in 2019 World Cup #IndiaVsPakistan #INDvsPAK #WorldCup2019 pic.twitter.com/Ym9IRm9Aty

Alright then. We’ve got some overs to go. Let’s watch Rohit score the inevitable double hundred.
