Rohit Sharma as a test Opener
Rohit Sharma is one of the best players for the Indian
cricket team and he is the one who always gets an extra second than the rest of
the other players in this cricket universe to time the ball, he is a player who
always loves to times the ball with perfection.
In his career Rohit Sharma has played all the three formats
for the team and, in the year 2007 he came into limelight with his flashy
innings in the T20 world cup against South Africa and since then he is a common
name in the Indian cricket team and right now he is the vice-captain of the
Indian national team and Rohit Sharma is the only player in cricket who has got
more than three double centuries to his name in the One-day international
format.
In January 2020 Rohit Sharma has also been named the ICC ODI
player of the year by the International Cricket Council.
In his career rohit sharma family background never had to
turn back since when in the year 2013 he started as an opener for the Indian
team in the ICC Champions Trophy, he has got an extraordinary ability to shift
his gear, though at the beginning of the innings he takes some times to settle
after that when he managed to settle he has got the ability to kick on.
Though the superstar has extraordinary skills and also has
achieved success in the limited over cricket for the Indian national team in
the longer format of the game his career got sputtered, as he managed to get
into the team in the year 2013, six years after he managed to get the debut in
Men in Blue jersey.
Though he has managed to score back to back centuries in the
Master Balster’s retirement series but in the total six years of time span, he
only played 27 test matches for the Indian national team which brings many
questions on his techniques and abilities.
Rohit Sharma as a test opener also failed to do something
which will concrete his spot in the national team, Rohit Sharma has a great
record in the home soil test matches where he managed to score three centuries
and nine half-centuries but still couldn’t manage to cement a regular starter
on the tea, now the Hitman is 33 years old and team India cannot expect to be
him the Shewag overnight in the test format.
But he is the ideal player when it comes to One-day
international matches and the T20 matches, as he has becomes a totally
different player in these two formats of the game and his wonderful performance
in 2019 is unforgettable, as he is the one who managed to score five centuries
in the world cup but still teams India failed to live up to their expectation
in the Semi-Finals against New Zealand.
