India opener Rohit Sharma shares a special bond with England and he proved it once again yesterday by carving a splendid 140 against Pakistan at Manchester, his fourth ODI century on English soil.

The Mumbai batsman joined his injured opening partner Shikhar Dhawan and West Indies's batting icon Viv Richards for the most centuries by a visiting batsman in ODIs in England. The 113-ball knock also made him the fastest Indian to score 1000 runs in England - 18 innings, surpassing Dhawan's 19 trips to the crease.
