De Kock, Warner, even Fakhar when he played. Rohit has played like what Sehwag did in 2011 but no one remembers that much and for right reasons. Link to comment

Rohit has secured the teams good starts and taken all the risks to ensure that team gets ahead. On am average he has secured 50 plus against top team at SR of 130. Not sure if Sehwag or anyone from this tournament has done this. Link to comment

He has played better than Sehwag ever did, Rohit is far better player in whiteball cricket than Sehwag ever was at any time in his career. Rohit has given great starts to the team but others also have used those great starts to either win the matches while batting second or score massive totals batting first. Rohit has scored 550 but iyer has scored nearly 530 and Rahul 350 plus. People keep pointing about his SR. He is starting from when scoreboard is 0 wickets down. If he falls early others have to come in and built the innings so their SR will be lower. Edited November 16, 2023 by putrevus Link to comment

You also pointed out SR issue I'm as happy as anyone by Rohit starts but this whole thread is to undermine Kohli who's been the actual difference. Rohit has been a fantastic support player though. if Rohit gets out early, it will be forgiven due to the approach but others dont have that luxury. I'm huge Viru fan but yes he's no where near Rohit in LOIs. putrevus 1 Link to comment
