IPL 2025: Wanted To Hit As Much Straight As Possible As Pitch Was Skiddy, Says Rohit
Indian Premier League: Mumbai Indians (MI) opener Rohit Sharma said his intention during his knock of 53 against Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 game at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium was to hit as much straight as possible due to the skiddy nature of the pitch.
Apart from hitting a sublime 53, where his timing of shots stood out in his third fifty of the season, Rohit shared a stellar 116-run opening stand with Ryan Rickleton, who hit 61. It was the first instance of MI getting a century stand from their opening pair in IPL 2025.
All of this looked impossible if Rohit hadn’t survived an lbw decision early on off Fazalhaq Farooqi, with his timely review showing the ball had pitched outside the leg stump. "It was important to get off to a good start. Looking at a couple of overs, the ball was coming on nicely and we took our chances.”
