Wait thread for Rohit's 1st 100 outside India

[Ankit_sharma03]

He is yet to score a 100 outside India, Lets see when it comes 

 

He has been a beast at home but outside its been mostly 30-50s and 60-70 on rare few occasions. Looks to have improved overseas but not getting that big one , does all the hard work but then throws it away.

Not just Rohit even others are not scoring 100s

He is compulsive puller that's gonna be big issue for him. He looks like has worked upon his defense recently but if he keeps pulling short balls then there is very low chance of him getting big score overseas. His 30s and 40s are good but for him to leave that mark in test cricket he needs some big scores overseas and time is running out for him.

Did he play the series in NZ? Since he turned test opener, he has played one game in Australia and 2 in England. Technically, he has adapted very well and done way better than what he was expected to do, which is poke one outside off and get out in the single digits. I think he will get a hundred in this series as he has gotten past the adjustment phase successfully.

Rohit has improved hugely, initially the conversation on ICF was that he is a walking wicket in overseas.

 

There are bigger worries with the 3, 4 and 5.

 

I see Rohit improving further. 

 

Not all about hundreds, an average of 30 as an opener in SENA is not bad compared with what we have seen before.

Rohit is improving give him some more years 

[Ajju]

He is best opener after Viru

The chance less 35’s in some of the conditions is no less than a 150 at times.

 

Batting in middle order or facing tired bowlers with the 2nd new ball is not the same as facing fit and firing bowlers with a new ball on the greenish pitch.

35 is as good as a 100 in these low scoring pitches. Whatever happened to fit for roles sumo wrestlers being fit for role of hitting a couple of 6’s once every 10 games

If Rohit finishes this series with an average of 40 and follows this up with a productive series in South Africa later this year, he'd comfortably retire as our best opener after Sunny and Viru.

Murali Vijay???
