Rohit Sharma shows his class at the Lord’s
INN/Kolkata, @Infodeaofficial
Rohit Sharma was mindful, to begin with, however, when he got the measure of the conditions, there was no one who can stop him. He got his first boundary after he cut a full-length ball from Sam Curran through the fine leg. Indeed, even as KL Rahul, his opening partner, involved the wrinkle, Rohit began playing his shots. Rohit played his trademark pull shot of Mark Wood that went for a tremendous six.
Prior, Rohit had said that if the ball was in his zone, he wouldn’t see any problems with going for his shots. Rohit was lucky when his inside edge off Wood cannoned past the stumps and went for a four. Meanwhile, Rohit and Rahul turned into the first-ever Indian opening pair to score a 50-run opening wicket partnership at the Lord’s since 1952. The duo was glancing unpropitious in the center.
Exactly when Rohit was solid to get his maiden overseas Test ton, James Anderson struck first blood. The England pacer bowled a decent length ball that barbed upheld strongly. Rohit attempted to play a defensive shot, however, the ball collided with the stumps. Anderson and the other English players were over the top since the speedster broke a 126-run opening stand.
