Moreover, Wasim Akram appreciated Sharma for his consistency.

He scored two half-centuries and a hundred out of four matches that he has played. However, Akram also added that Shikhar is also going well with his partner and scoring runs for India. The partners are doing extremely well and making everything in the right way when they are playing on the crease.

“I think Rohit Sharma has done a great job as India skipper. He is leading from the front, he’s getting runs consistently and with ease. With him, Shikhar Dhawan is playing equally good. They are making things look so comfortable when they come out to bat. They look so calm and I think they have got every shot in their book,” Wasim Akram told India Today.
