div Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 Now even Wasim Akram is saying he has poor defence
rkt.india Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 What a beauty of a hook shot. :nice: Pujara has a great hook shot. Rohit is one of the best pullers in this batting lineup.
FischerTal Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 Pujara has a great hook shot. Rohit is one of the best pullers in this batting lineup. Pujara has more shots overall
Detonator Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 Not based on 1 ton:facepalm: See his FC record!!! Superb!!! Great technique against pace, good back foot player, crucila for tests away from home! The same mob who say dont pick him for tests , have used his odi performances as proof why should not play tests. Those same people now he is doing well in an odsi say its only odis, how can you pick him based on those. A little bit of consistency please in your lines of thought would be nice!! Agree with his record, but his tendency of throwing wicket away is what pissing off people. I dont think he ll succeed in tests. But dont worry, he ll make a test debut and be a passanger for yrs. he wont be hated like vijay, even if he fails repeatedly. I never seen another cricketer who is given too many chances like rohit. it looks like they r forcing him to succeed.
Lord Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 great player of short ball.smashed Watson's 140 kph bouncer yesterday will smash better Test bowlers too on bouncy pitches
Yoda-esque Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 great player of short ball.smashed Watson's 140 kph bouncer yesterday will smash better Test bowlers too on bouncy pitches Don't start RISS bandwagon
Number Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 great player of short ball.smashed Watson's 140 kph bouncer yesterday will smash better Test bowlers too on bouncy pitches Yaar, even Ponting or Richards would have got a top edge an odd ball. His weakness is on full length deliveries where he really struggles.

His weakness is on full length deliveries where he really struggles.[/quote'] thing is I'm not sure hes great of the short ball anyway.We see him playing hook shots on pattas for sixes and think hes great real good players are able to play pull shot and keep the ball on the ground.like Dravid,Laxman,SRT.Even Dhoni is decent Rohit needs to learn doing it.he'll struggle if he plays it in the air all the time.Specially in Test cricket on bouncy pitches that isnt good. Struggles on full ball is more I agree

Laaloo Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Cape Town is a patta. Not really a fast bouncy pitch.

jusarrived Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Pujara has a great hook shot. Rohit is one of the best pullers in this batting lineup. Most batsmen cant hook & its a very high risk shot even for the few who could do it . Tendulkar and Dravid played the hook the best imo , VVS was poor , but he could pull every thing along the ground so I would pick him ahead of other two overall wrt playing the short ball . Of the current lot , I dont think any one has a great technique to hook apart from Pujara . Virat , Rohit and Dhoni are very good at pulling . Dhawan makes me very nervous btw , he gets into very very awkward positions against the short ball . Hes been lucky up till now

Jersey #10 Posted November 2, 2013 Posted November 2, 2013 When Rohit Sharma scored as much as the entire Pakistan team did on the previous day - 209:hysterical:
CG Posted November 2, 2013 Posted November 2, 2013 People who know about batting always knew rohit potential.He is just starting out with confidence ,He will do well.
