During the World Cup in England, where Rohit hit a record five centuries, he had credited his new-born daughter for putting him in a "good space". He seemed to be in that same space on Wednesday as well

Generally, a cricketer is often asked what he had for breakfast after a breathtaking performance, but if it's Rohit Sharma, the reason has to be his daughter Samaira.
Just before coming out to bat against West Indies in the T20I series decider at the Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday, India's swashbuckling opener Rohit Sharma was seen making cute gestures towards his daughter, Samaira, who was seated with mum Ritika in the corporate box, adjacent to the dressing room. Samaira will turn one on December 30. Having had a rather subdued T20I series so far against the Windies (8 and 15 in the first two matches), the home stage was set for Rohit to explode when it mattered the most.
