If Rohit Sharma’s bat works, a record will be made, ready to leave these giants behind.
Rohit Sharma India vs England : Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma’s bat did not work in the first match played between India and England. He played two short innings. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma must be waiting for the next match. If Rohit’s bat works in the second match, he will touch new heights. Along with this, he is just a few steps away from defeating two greats of Indian cricket.
Rohit Sharma can complete his 4000 runs in test
Talking about Rohit Sharma’s test statistics, he has so far played 55 matches and scored 3800 runs in this format. His average in this format is 45.23, while his strike rate is 56.60. So far he has scored 10 centuries and 16 half-centuries in Tests. In such a situation, it is clear that he is just 200 runs away from completing his 4000 test runs. Although 200 runs in a match seems like a lot, but everyone knows that if Rohit gets settled at the crease then this figure of 200 runs is not going to be very big for him. Besides, he will definitely get two innings in the next match. In such a situation, they can touch this figure.
Rohit can leave behind Ravi Shastri and Murali Vijay
If captain Rohit Sharma is successful in completing his 4000 test runs, then he can leave behind two greats of India. In fact, ahead of Rohit is the former head coach of the Indian team, Ravi Shastri, who has 3830 runs in his name in 80 Tests. Whereas Murali Vijay has scored 3982 runs after playing 61 tests. That means, to overtake Ravi Shastri, Rohit will need only 31 more runs, whereas to overtake Murali Vijay, Rohit will have to score a big century. If Rohit Sharma crosses the 4000 mark, he will become the 16th player from India to reach this milestone.
Rohit’s bat did not work in the first test
If we talk about the first match of the England series, there was no big innings from his bat. In the first innings of the match, he was out after scoring 24 runs, while in the second he scored 39 runs. Earlier, when the Indian team was playing Test in South Africa, even at that time he did not score runs from his bat. In the first test he scored 5 and zero runs, while in the second he scored 39 and 16 not out. That means a big innings of Rohit can come any time. It may or may not come in the next test. For this we will have to wait for a few days.
