India’s former opening batsman Virender Sehwag said Rohit Sharma was a treat to watch. Rohit Sharma always has had an attractive batting style and it is always a treat to the eyes to watch him bat. Another masterclass from India’s deputy was on display in the fourth ODI against Windies at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. It was a typical Rohit Sharma’s innings. He brought his fifty in 60-odd balls.

Subsequently, as he always does went on to change gears like a superfast car. In fact, there are no better sights in the cricket world other than to watch Rohit Sharma bat in full flow. India’s vice-captain continued his penchant of scoring daddy hundreds as he scored 162 runs off just 137 balls.

In fact, Rohit Sharma had also scored a fine knock of unbeaten 152 in the first match of the series. Furthermore, Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan were back in pavilion inside 17 overs, which made Rohit’s role more crucial.

On the other hand, Ambati Rayudu was also able to come good at the number four position. Rayudu scored his third ODI hundred as he took only 80 balls. Rayudu followed the footsteps of his former Mumbai Indians captain. He took his time initially and then catapulted his attack on the Windies bowlers.

Thus, it was a fine batting effort from Rohit Sharma and Ambati Rayudu that saw Men in Blue put a gargantuan total of 377 runs on the board.

Furthermore, India also backed their batting performance with a fine bowling display. Khaleel Ahmed bowled with fire as he got the ball to swing both ways and was able to hit the right areas.

Virender Sehwag took to Twitter to share his post. Sehwag post read as, “Good win for India. Rohit was a treat to watch, so was Rayudu and a good effort from the bowlers. Khaleel Ahmed was very clever today. Now Thiruvanathpuram with the series open #IndvWI”.
