Saw During Deccan Chargers Stint That Rohit Was Something Special, Says Styris
Former New Zealand: Former New Zealand all-rounder Scott Styris said he saw during his time playing for the now-defunct Deccan Chargers that Rohit Sharma had something special in him.
Styris and Rohit were together in the Deccan Chargers camp in the 2008 and 2009 IPL, where the side won the title in South Africa. Rohit went on to join Mumbai Indians and led them to five IPL titles, followed by making India win the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup in June.
“It (IPL 2008) was my first opportunity to be a teammate and see (and hear of ) Rohit Sharma. He was with us at the Deccan Chargers. He was 19 or 20 years old at that time and I could see then that this kid was something special. I’ve just come back from Sri Lanka where I commentated on India vs Sri Lanka, caught up with him there and he’s still the same guy that he was 16 years ago,” said Styris to cricket.com.
