How Many Times Rohit Sharma Got Out in 90s? Nervous Nineties by Hitman

Rohit Sharma has been dismissed in the 90s a total of six times.

Rohit Sharma, the “Hitman” of Indian cricket, is known for his explosive batting and record-breaking innings. However, a recurring and one of the most frustrating patterns in his career has been the “nervous 90s” – dismissals within mere inches away from a century.

In this article, we look at 6 such instances where Rohit fell agonizingly short of a well-deserved ton:

1. Run Out at 95 vs. West Indies (2011 ODI)

Rohit Sharma was involved in a risky second run and ended up getting run out while putting up a crucial partnership on the board against West Indies in 2011.

    2. 99 vs. Australia (2016 ODI)

    In a high-scoring encounter, Rohit Sharma played a magnificent innings but fell just one run short of a well-deserved century.

    3. 91 vs. England (2017 Champions Trophy)

    The Mumbai batter, once again, bent knees in the nervous 90s and was run out against England in the 2017 Champions Trophy.

    4. 92 vs. South Africa (2018 Test)

    After a solid start in the Test innings, Sharma attempted to up the ante but was dismissed before reaching a century.

    5. 97 vs. England (2021 Test)

    Rohit Sharma was looking in great touch against the fiery bowling lineup of England in overcast conditions. However, once again he fell just three runs short of what could have been his first away Test century.

    6. 92 vs. England (2023 ODI)

    Rohit Sharma continued his pattern until last year when he was dismissed for 92 runs against England.
