Harsha Bhogle Wants Rohit Sharma to Come Back as Opener 

 

 

Recently, Harsha Bhogle expressed his view about Rohit Sharma's batting position, stating that he wants Rohit Sharma to open the innings and KL Rahul to play in the middle order. He also talked about the young pacer Harshit Rana's performance.

 

Harsha Bhogle said it had been his view for a long term view that when you signed a batter, you sign them for every eventuality; he also added that India would be much better served if Rohit opened. If Rohit Sharma goes to open in the Brisbane test, it will create a message that the captain is leading from the front.

 

“ I can understand. It was a little underdone, but that was a personal choice; remember, when you make a personal choice, you should accept the outcome, but that's water under the bridge now.”

 

He also said that this move will send a clear message to KL Rahul that his batting position is no. 6. On the other hand, he also discussed that if KL Rahul is again asked to bat at the bouncy Brisbane pitch and Rohit Sharma is batting at number 6, then the Indian team has to tell KL Rahul that they are investing in him as an opener, and when they go back to India, Rahul will open.

Suggesting that Rohit Sharma should open the innings and let KL Rahul at number 6 find his comfort factor at number 6

While talking about Shubman Gill, he mentioned that the young better need to convert those 30s into 70s; the 30s don't suit his class.

Before that, he talked about Harshit Rana's performance in detail, and also about Jaspreet Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, stating that Bumrah is a world-class bowler and performed in almost every match it was good to see Mohammad Siraj taking for wicket and taking the load from umrah when he talks about Harshit Rana, that he did great at the first test match at in the second test match he was of the line and length and his ten overs gave Travis at the space and that when should we became the differentiating factor in the match. Still, it was his second game, I can't blame him, and "since it's a team game, you can't blame a single person for the loss."

 

After winning the first test match, Australia defeated India by ten wickets. India scored 180 and 175 runs in the innings. Nitish Reddy was the highest scorer in both innings, with 42 runs each.
