Both Starc and Shaeen are threatening with the new ball: Rohit Sharma
He was asked to pick his favorite moment from India’s 1983 World Cup win and the 2011 World Cup win. Rohit replied, “Tough one, honestly, I would prefer both actually.”
When asked whether he would prefer facing Mitchell Starc or Shaheen Afridi, both left-arm pacers. Rohit, who in the clip said he prefers facing pacers over spinners, responded, “None, both are quality, quite threatening with the new ball, can swing the ball, quite fast. So I would say none.”
He also preferred the pull shot over the cover drive and when asked which of his teammates out of Yuzvendra Chahal and Ishan Kishan he prefers sitting with in the team bus. Rohit Sharma said “Before I go to the game, I want calm, I want peace. None of these guys bring any of those. So none.”
To note, Rohit has been rested for the Ireland tour and the Indian skipper will be seen in action during the 2023 Asia Cup. The Men in Blue are set to take on Pakistan in both team’s opening encounter of the marquee event. Team India will want to win the prized trophy before they gear up for the all-important World Cup set to be played in India this year.
