    I am happy I could score runs, says ton-up Rohit
  • Rohit Sharma gave everybody the glimpse of what he can offer in Test cricket after amassing an unbeaten century against South Africa on Day 1 of the first Test.

    The 32-year-old was given the chance as an opener in Tests and he grabbed it with both hands.

    Rohit was unbeaten on 115 when rain intervened.

    Here's what he said.

  • Rohit joined hands with Mayank Agarwal (84*) to tame the Proteas attack on Wednesday.

    India managed 202/0 in 59.1 overs as rain stopped play.

    The two batsmen were cautious at the start and scored freely when the spinners came on.

    Both the batsmen played to their strengths and gave India the desired momentum.

    Rohit slammed 12 fours and five sixes to show his authority.

    "I wanted to take the opportunity and that's why I made the management aware of it. I am grateful to them for providing me with the opportunity and I am happy I could score runs," he said.

  • Rohit also said he was clear in his mind.

    "I was very clear in my mind what I wanted to do. The new ball will always do a bit in the initial overs -- whether it's red ball or white," he said.

    "I have played cricket in India for a long time now and that's why I was aware of the conditions."

  • Quote

    'Backing myself and my game was most important for me'

  • "This was my plan to tackle the new ball and then stick to what I had planned. Backing myself and my game was most important for me because it was all I had in my mind," said Rohit, who slammed many Test records.
