India vs Australia: 'Steadying the ship and how,' fans explode on twitter as Rohit records 22nd ODI ton

Rohit Sharma who is back from home after his wife Ritika Sajdeh delivered a baby girl has come in with a bang. The Hitman just scored a century at the ODI series against Australia.

The man who has seven ODI centuries against Australia now has five on the Aussie soil. This ton marks his 22nd ODI centuries. He now equals Sourav Ganguly's record for 22 ODI hundreds.

The century has got people crazy and Twitter can't keep calm. 

Mumbai Indians team wrote, "STEADYING THE SHIP AND HOW!
On a day when his team needed him the most, Rohit Sharma comes up with a fabulous hundred -- his 22nd in ODIs".

No typical celebration after 100 by Rohit Sharma tells priorities!!

2019’s start by a BABY GIRL & 100 in his 1ST MATCH that too when needed the most!

The start could not be better than this!

Probably this 100 is better than all of his 200s!

Take a bow Hitman! #AUSvIND pic.twitter.com/YbMeHM3Kzq
