5 Best Asian opening batsmen

#5. Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma will remain one of the best examples for ‘when talent meets hard work’. In his early years, Rohit Sharma had an average start to his career and got bashed by the critics and fans as a waste of talent. Rohit Sharma proved them wrong when he has promoted up the order by MS Dhoni. Ever since his promotion as an opener in 2013, Rohit has had a dream run and has made a name for himself.

Rohit usually prolongs his time at the crease with a proper plan which has transformed into a big inning player. The 3 double centuries stand an example for the same. Rohit has scored 5098 runs in 103 innings he opened with an amazing average of 56.02. Hit-man has 17 hundred while opening gives an adequate illustration for his unimaginable transformation.
