Rohit Sharma News: Rohit Sharma has been the pivot of the batting order for Team India in the last decade. He was not able to perform well in the initial years after his debut. He did not even get a place in the ODI World Cup 2011. After this, he worked on his batting and worked very hard. Then in the Champions Trophy 2013, the then captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni gave him the responsibility of opening. Then his luck changed and he never looked back. He has proved to be the biggest hero for Team India.

Scores runs at a fast pace

Rohit Sharma is the only batsman in the world of cricket who has scored three double centuries in ODI cricket. His pull shot is unmatched and he easily sends the ball outside the boundary. In the last few years, he has completely changed his way of playing. As soon as he comes to the crease, he does explosive batting and scores runs at a fast pace. This also inspired the other batsmen of the team to play fast.

You will achieve a special position as soon as you score two centuries
