Sachin Tendulkar ne Rohit Sharma ki tareef ki I sachin tendulkar lauds rohit sharma’s batting says he is a leader who can adapt in any situation

Mumbai: India’s all-time great batsman Sachin Tendulkar heaped praise on Rohit Sharma’s new style. Rohit Sharma is currently performing well in Test cricket as an opener in the Pataudi Trophy against England. In the first two Tests of the five-match series, Rohit Sharma scored 36, 12*, 83 and 21 runs. Taking the responsibility, Rohit Sharma tried to adapt himself to the pitch and this impressed the Master Blaster a lot.

The great thing is that Tendulkar said that Rohit has now reached that stage of his career where he is showing his leadership style and is proving how good a player he is by adapting himself to the situation and batting. Rohit Sharma is playing his first Test series in England as an opener. The quality of Rohit Sharma was that he took the time to settle on the pitch and troubled the English bowlers a lot.

Sachin Tendulkar said in a conversation with PTI, ‘Whatever I saw, I believe he has taken the lead and he has shown the other side to improve. He changed his game and played according to the situation. However, Rohit Sharma is yet to score a century on the current tour of England. Tendulkar sheds light on how Rohit took the role of leader to play the anchor that led KL Rahul to success in England.

KL Rahul scored 129 runs in the first innings of the Lord’s Test and won the player of the match title. India won the Lord’s Test by 151 runs and took a 1-0 lead in the series. The great batsman said, ‘Rohit Sharma was the leader there and KL Rahul gave him a great support. As far as the pull shot is concerned, he has crossed the boundary line with that shot and my focus was on how he performed in these two Tests and what the team achieved.

Rohit has improved a lot: Tendulkar

Rohit Sharma released the ball very well in the first two Tests. Sachin Tendulkar said, ‘Rohit Sharma released the ball well and defended equally well and leveled. He’s always been a great player, but looking at his last few innings in England, I can say that he’s leveled up.

England’s legendary fast bowler James Anderson made Rohit Sharma his victim by putting a classic in-swinger. The Indian batsman was dismissed for 83 runs and missed his maiden century in England. The Indian team is currently leading 1-0 in the five-match series and now the third Test will be played at Headingley from August 25.
