Rohit jointly holds the record for the fastest hundred in T20 Internationals. In December 2017, Rohit had hit a 35-ball hundred against Sri Lanka to go level with David Miller of South Africa, who had also hit a 35-ball hundred in a T20I against Bangladesh just two months earlier. In 2019, S Wickramasekara of the Czech Republic drew level with Miller and Rohit with a 35-ball century against Turkey.
