Ball-by-ball: Rohit takes Starc down in 29-run over

2.1
Starc to Rohit Sharma, SIX runs

Starc to Rohit Sharma, SIX runs

Starc to Rohit Sharma, FOUR runs
Slammed down the ground now, third boundary from successive balls! Hammered off a length over mid-on

Starc to Rohit Sharma, no run

Goes for the wide yorker again, 142kph. But this one slides outside the tramlines

Starc to Rohit Sharma, SIX runs
