Pakistan Bowlers Will Be Under Pressure Against Rohit Sharma- Misbah-ul-Haq
After Rohit Sharma’s wonderful knock, former Pakistan all-rounder Misbah-ul-Haq said that bowlers of other teams including Pakistan will be under pressure while bowling to Rohit Sharma in ICC World Cup 2023.
“After watching Rohit Sharma’s batting I feel that teams that will face him in other games like Pakistan, their players will be under pressure. Their bowlers will be confused about where to bowl him”, he said.

He also noted that Sharma has a shot for every type of delivery and hence, bowlers will be confused about where to bowl him.
“If you bowl outside the off-stumps, he slams it for boundaries. Lifts the back of the length deliveries for straight drive. Hits the shorter-length ball for six towards square leg and fine leg. The way he is batting I mean the margin of error…forget the margin of error… where to bowl becomes a big question for a bowler”, Misbah-ul-Haq further added.
