"I personally don't think there's any problem. The last 3 one-dayers Rohit has played, he has scored 58, 64 and 35.The guy has got 31 one-day hundreds. Sometimes whenever there's a little lean patch, I don't think I'd be worried or thinking about their form,” Kotak was quoted as saying by Hindustan Times.
While all the other Indian batters including Virat Kohli were struggling to get going, Rohit gave India flying starts at the top. He struck 157 runs in 3 ODIs at an average of 52.33 and a strike rate of 141.44, emerging as the highest run-getter of the series.
