Following speculation about his future with the India team ahead of what some call his “last ODI,” Rohit Sharma scores a century in the third ODI against England at Lord’s. NDTV reports that former Pakistan batter Kamran Akmal has spoken in Rohit’s support, saying Rohit’s performance serves as a “perfect response” to the surrounding chatter. Akmal’s comments frame the century as both a strong on-field statement and a direct answer to questions about Rohit’s place in the ODI setup. The report links Akmal’s endorsement to Rohit’s ability to deliver under attention, highlighting the importance of the knock in the context of ongoing discussion about his career. Overall, the coverage emphasizes that the match performance is central to the conversation, with Akmal urging that Rohit’s innings should be seen as a clear, positive reply to speculation. The report does not provide further details beyond Akmal’s reaction and the context of Rohit’s century at Lord’s.
