India captain Rohit Sharma went berserk against Australia in the T20 World Cup Super Eight match on Monday (June 24).

The India captain took apart Australia's premium pace bowler Mitchell Starc in the 3rd over of the match, which cost 29 runs and thus inflicted the most expensive over bowled by Starc in T20I matches.

India was put into bat and lost Virat Kohli early. Kohli got out for a duck as Josh Hazlewood picked up his wicket. Just when things looked quiet after first two, Rohit Sharma decided to go all guns blazing.
