ROHIT SHARMA – A PROMISING TALENTED BATSMAN

Rohit Sharma is one of India's most promising talents over the next couple of years. He is  a right-handed batsman, He first came to limelight when he played CB Series in Australia in early 2008, scoring two fifties, including a vital 66 in the first final in Sydney.

His ability to look right at the crease but didn't translate into long innings and his lack of consistency didn't allow him to be a part of India's World Cup-winning squad.
He made his ODI debut against Ireland in 2007 and still struggling to get in the Test team. He was selected for the Test team but he hurt himself playing football during the warm-up. Always keep one thing in your mind that "There is no place for failure at this level no matter how talented you are. 

Indian Premier League

Rohit Sharma made an impact with his batting in the first three seasons of IPL for Deccan Chargers. After that he was bought by Mumbai Indians in 2011. His last ball winning six and his hat trick was still remembered by the public. The turning point of his career in the IPL came when in 2013 Ricky Ponting who was leading the Mumbai Indians was stepping out from the team due to his poor performance with the bat. Rohit Sharma was named as captain for the rest of the matches to be played. The captaincy has changed him completely even his batting was improved. The ability of staying calm in a crunch situation helped him to flourish as a captain. And he was the man who led the Mumbai Indians to their maiden IPL title in 2013. If you think it's a miracle then you are wrong its not. He was also led Mumbai Indians to their first ever Champions League Trophy T-20 in the same year.
