WTC Final / Aakash Chopra feels Rohit Sharma can succeed as an opener in England

WTC Final | Former India cricketer and current commentator Aakash Chopra believes that Rohit Sharma will be successful in England as an opener. India is scheduled to play a total of six Tests on the England tour, including the final match of the World Test Championship (WTC). According to Akash, in the current England tour, Rohit can get 2-3 centuries with the bat. India has come on this tour with four specialist openers, which, apart from Rohit, include Shubman Gill, Mayank Agarwal and KL Rahul.

Talking on his YouTube channel, Akash said, 'I think Rohit will do well in England. He has quality and the Indian team will repose full faith in him. He scored five centuries in the 2019 Cricket World Cup in England. If a batsman scores five hundreds in an ODI tournament and has to play six Test matches now, we can expect him to score 2-3 hundreds in 12 innings.

Rohit created history by scoring 5 centuries in a single World Cup

During the 2019 World Cup, India's vice-captain Rohit Sharma made history by scoring five centuries in limited overs. This is the world record for most centuries by a batsman in a single World Cup. His bat had scored the highest 648 runs in this tournament. His 648 runs are the 5th most runs scored by any player in an ODI series or tournament and the 3rd highest in a single edition of the World Cup. India was, of course, out of the New Zealand team after losing in the semi-finals, but Rohit won everyone's heart with his batting.
