WATCH | Sikkim Player Touches Rohit Sharma's Feet After VHT Match in Jaipur; Video Goes Viral

Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025: Rohit Sharma, who is arguably the best white-ball player of the generation, gave a glimpse of why he is still rated highly. Playing his first Vijay Hazare Trophy game in over a decade, Rohit smashed a breathtaking 155 off 94 balls to help Mumbai win their VHT opener on Wednesday in Jaipur. Rohit's whirlwind knock featured nine sixes and 18 fours as he was also awarded the Player of the Match. Rohit was simply unstoppable as he hit the inexperienced Sikkim bowlers to all parts of the ground.

Opting to bat first, Sikkim posted an in-between 236. Wicketkeeper Ashish Thapa top-scored for Sikkim with 79 off 87 balls. Chasing 237 to win, Rohit made light work of it as Mumbai managed to win the game in just 30.3 overs by eight wickets. It was a clinical win for Mumbai and a great way to get their VHT campaign underway. The game would give the Mumbai side a lot of confidence.

Will Rohit Play vs Uttarakhand? 

In all probability, Rohit would feature for Mumbai in their next VHT game against Uttarakhand on December 26. The game would be played at the same venue in Jaipur and a bigger crowd is expected to turn up for it as it is on a Saturday. Rohit would love to continue his good form in that match as well before he joins the Indian team before the series against New Zealand.
