"Those who saw him in Bengaluru told me that Rohit is looking very fit, very sleek, and it’s evident that he has put in serious effort on his body. What struck me as interesting while speaking to people close to the matter is that this level of hard work doesn’t appear to be just for one ODI series against Australia."
"From the way he looks and from what people who have seen him say, it feels like Rohit is preparing with a bigger picture in mind. The way he has achieved this level of fitness suggests he is not planning to stop after one series. At the moment, he seems to be in his best shape in recent times, and it’s very clear that he is thinking beyond just the immediate assignments."
