Rohit Would Want To Score Those Big Hundreds That Everyone Expects From Him, Says Piyush Chawla
Vijay Hazare Trophy: Former India leg‑spinner Piyush Chawla has said veteran opener Rohit Sharma will be keen to hit the big hundreds that fans and the team have come to expect from him when the three‑match ODI series against Afghanistan begins in Dharamshala on Saturday.
"When you are playing just one format for India, you want to spend as much time at the crease as possible because, no matter how much net practice or match simulation you do, an international match, regardless of the opposition, is a different challenge.
“So, as a batter, you want to score big runs and, if he is completely fit, he would want to score those big hundreds that everyone has come to expect from him. Because more than those quick 40s and 50s, the team would want those innings of 120-130 runs off 100 deliveries from Rohit,” said Chawla on JioHotstar.
