Star batsmen and their second home grounds

7. Rohit Sharma – Eden Gardens

Outside India, Rohit loves MCG. In India, the Mumbaikar loves the Eden Gardens

Though still in its fledgling state, the Rohit-Edens relationship is already a special one. Whenever the Mumbai batsman has walked out to bat on the Edens pitch, be it in the whites of Test or the blues of his India and Mumbai Indians’ shirts, he has conjured up magic. It comes as no surprise that Rohit’s 264 against Sri Lanka came on the same ground.

What more, when given a chance to make his Test debut after a long wait at Edens, Rohit once again unleashed an array of shots that only he is capable up to notch up a scintillating debut ton against West Indies.Even in the IPL, the Kolkata Knight Riders’ home ground is Rohit’s favorite home ground where he has a century to his name.
