India vs Sri Lanka: Rohit Sharma is one of the best puller & hooker of the cricket ball. The way he adjusts his body to get into the perfect position to hook the ball is something not everyone can do easily. 

Rohit has on record said that he won't miss out on hooking or pulling the ball whenever he gets an opportunity and to his credit, he doesn't. But the risk and reward of hitting the same shot gets balanced out in the long run. 

During the first test match between India and Sri Lanka at Mohali, Rohit Sharma looked in fantastic touch as he scored 29 runs off 28 balls with the help of six fours. In the six boundaries he hit, four came towards the mid-wicket region through flicks and pull shots. 

However, as soon as Lahiru Kumara invited him to hook the ball, Rohit obliged and attempted to hit the ball over the fine leg for a six. But, as we have seen a lot of other times as well, Rohit was caught by Suranga Lakmal at the boundary. 

India lost the first wicket in the 10th over but Rohit's inning gave the team a good start in the first session of day 1.
