Rohit Sharma has played 86 ODI's over a period of nearly 6 Years .....It is not like he has been given a thorough consistent run like most people are making it out to be....It is not consistent but yes it has been a 'lot of oppurtunities' quantity wise and yes,it is time somebody else got his due. But overall I would say his career has been handled badly......6 year span in contention....86 ODI games and not a single test match? I would say we have managed him badly. Never got a lengthy run...So many chop and Changes in our ODI squad over these years...no chance to establish yourself
Totally agree, I said this in the match thread too. Unfair to give him a match and then drop him for next two. I hope he is retained for Eng series. Yes he has been managed badly

His stance looked a lot different today. Knees were bent and were allowing him to move forward which has been a problem for him. Good innings, I enjoy watching him bat more than anyone else in this side(too bad he rarely plays long innings :P). But in ODIs I don't know whether we will be ever sure that he will be a good player.

Wll he obviously has to contine as opener in odis for a few more games now. But in tests I am convinced he can do the bussiness. His abilty against pace means he can thrive on overseas tracks as well. I think of the current batters, he is the best player against short ball, for him its an opportunity and wants it, while others dread the bonuncer

He always had a good technique ,The pitch had good bounce so it helped his style.For him consistency is the key.
