Changed batting line-up..!? south africa is excited to see Rohit..!
indian team captain rohit sharma has the worst batting record on South African soil. However, he will definitely play a different game in the upcoming India-South Africa Test series. The reason for that is that his batting line-up has changed this time. rohit sharma has played 4 Test matches on South African soil between 2013 and 2018. He has scored only 123 runs in eight innings. His batting average is just 15.37. This is a very, very bad batting record. But in those eight innings, rohit sharma was 5 and 6th in the batting order.
After 2018, he did not participate in any Test series on South African soil. After five years, rohit sharma is set to participate in the South African Test series. But, in between, he moved from middle order to opener in the Test team. Rohit Sharma's batting average has risen since becoming the opener.
There are 11 more wickets. Ashwin is aiming for a historic record.. but there is a problem. It is noteworthy that rohit sharma scored three centuries as the opener against the South African team in the Test series in india in 2019-20. If he plays in the same form, it will definitely be a big problem for the South African team. However, it is not easy to bat in South Africa. If rohit sharma scores half-centuries, it will be a positive thing for the indian team.
