Rohit Sharma
Legendary Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar feels that opener Rohit Sharma can score three centuries in the upcoming Test series against England. Gavaskar also stated that India's batting line-up would have a hard time when they will play against England in the 5-Test series starting in August. After the WTC final, the Indian cricket team will be given the rest of about six weeks. Considering Team India has a solid batting order this time, things are expected to be in their favor.
Rohit Sharma became the first batsman in history to score five tons in a single season of the World Cup
Rohit Sharma has so far featured in 20 away Tests. In those matches, the batsman has amassed 945 runs at an average of 27. Overall, the 34-year-old averages 46.69 in 38 Test matches and has also scored seven hundred and 12 fifties in the most extended format of the game. Rohit Sharma has amassed 1030 runs in just 11 innings as a Test opener. He is so far the fastest among all Indian opening batsmen to achieve the feat. Rohit Sharma gave brilliant starts for India at the top of the order. He also emerged as the leading run-scorer for the hosts in the Test series against England. Sharma scored 345 runs in the four-match Test series at an average of 57.50.
Rohit Sharma has featured in only one Test match in England so far. Back in 2014 where the batsman could only score 34 runs. However, Rohit Sharma has come a long way in international cricket since. During the 2019 World Cup in England, Rohit became the first batsman in history to score five tons in a single season of the World Cup. The English cricket team has always been one of the most challenging countries for India to bat in. But Sunil Gavaskar has backed Rohit to succeed. The former Indian captain also believes that he has what it takes to score as many as three centuries.
Rohit Sharma is anticipated to bat at the top of the order for India when they take on the Black Caps at the Rose Bowl in Southampton on June 18. Needless to say, Rohit's luck with the bat will play a crucial role when India and New Zealand lock horns in England in the final clash of the World Test Championship.
