Soon after, Twitter was flooded with pictures and videos of the lady. Apart from India going past the 300 mark, this fan moment was one of the highlights of the first half of the game.

In the match, after winning the toss and opting to bat, India posted a big total of 314/9 in 50 overs. Rohit Sharma was again the star with the bat for India. He brought up his 26th One-day International (ODI) ton. This was his fourth hundred in the ongoing World Cup, Rohit has equalled the record for most number of centuries in a single World Cup (4) with Kumar Sangakkara.
KL Rahul also chipped in with a fine half-century that laid the foundation for India's middle order to take the game away from Bangladesh. Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik and Hardik Pandya missed out with the bat but Rishabh Pant, playing his second World Cup match scored a quick-fire 48 that helped the Indian team post a competitive total on the board.
