But when he frees up his mind and plays strokes he can dominate any bowler. He reached his 50 in 2.4 overs against Boult and SHami in the last year IPL. XXXX - can be anybody He needs to be told to play like it is T20, Rohit will be in his stonewalling mode at the other end for sure. Anyway both he and Rohit have problem with the incoming delivery by lefties, if Amir finds his banana swing on Sunday can't depend on those 2. Forecast is overcast, like you said maybe DK should be sent to open with Sharma. He is unpredictable, might even get a smooth 70-80 surprising us all.

Bigg Brother Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Amir or Boult, Rahul will do well.It is not he is being asked to open despite not being an opener. He has opened in past be it domestics and he will do well. Link to comment
Nikola Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Rahul is naturally an opener where as rohit is make shift opener. I think rahul can take his time at start for first 4 - 5 overs and then go in attacking mode. Link to comment

Part of the learning curve. Even during the game Rahul’s calling eventually improved. Let the maestro take his time to work on the kid Link to comment

PBN Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 posted from other thread: With Dhawan ruled out, it's an opportunity for Rahul. Rahul had a good first games against Pakistan. Now, you've got two openers who can take it deep and get BIG hundreds or even double centuries. They'll need to settle the chemistry between them wrt to running between the wickets and building partnerships. maniac 1 Link to comment
