“If Rohit Sharma is able to conquer South Africa…..,” Irfan Pathan Spoke About Rohit Sharma

Irfan Pathan Spoke About Rohit Sharma: We already know that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli asked BCCI for a break from not playing any T20I and ODI. But many of them said that it was not a correct decision, as they had very little time. They need to play. Anyhow, they stood on the decision that they took.

And now recently, Irfan Pathan said that Rohit Sharma would be at the top if he leads the South Africa series to win.

“I feel you will see Rohit Sharma preparing with the same passion…..,” Irfan Pathan Spoke About Rohit Sharma

We all know that Presently, Men in Blue are in South Africa to play the T20I series, but due to heavy rain in Durban, the first match with South Africa has been canceled on Sunday.

Proteas need to face two more test series. And these two matches are going to be led by Rohit after the rest for a while.

During the discussion with Star Sports, when they asked Pathan about Rohit Sharma’s entry in the South Africa challenge, he said,

“If Rohit Sharma can conquer South Africa, his name will be kept top-most in India’s cricket history as captain and player because he only has the key to wins in both these matches.”

“He is both an opener and a captain. If you play out the new ball, your other batters will get the chance to shine. That’s why you should remove the shine from the new ball,” he also added.

Irfan Pathan expects that Rohit Sharma should prepare for South Africa as he prepared for England.

“He went fully prepared and batted amazingly in the Test series when he went to England. I feel you will see Rohit Sharma preparing with the same passion before he goes. Rohit’s challenge will be to play out the new ball, score his runs, and take his team forward.”

“He is going to wear a lot of hats and only the most experienced player in your team is capable of wearing so many hats. We have two big brothers in this team – Rohit and Virat Kohli. There will be a lot of dependency on both of them.”
