The Indian cricket team’s captain Rohit Sharma, is back in form. In the recent ODI series against England, he scored a century in the second match. This performance was crucial, especially after a tough Test series against Australia. Rohit showed his class by scoring big when the team needed him. Australia’s former captain Michael Clarke makes a bold prediction about Rohit ahead of the Champions Trophy.
Michael Clarke’s bold prediction for Champions Trophy
Clarke has made an exciting prediction for the upcoming Champions Trophy. Clarke believes that Rohit will be the leading run-scorer of the tournament, which is set to begin on February 19 in Karachi. “Well, I am saying India is going to win (Champions Trophy). I am going to go with their captain, who’s back in form. I am going to say Rohit Sharma—leading run scorer in the tournament,” Clarke mentioned in the Beyond23 Cricket Podcast. He added, “It’s good to see him making runs again. I think India need him for sure.”
Rohit’s journey in the recent series wasn’t all smooth as he had two low scores, but his century stood out as the highlight. This helped India seal a 3-0 series win against England.
Key players to watch in Champions Trophy
Clarke is not only focusing on Rohit. He also mentioned Jofra Archer from England as a key bowler to watch out for in the tournament. “I want to go with Jofra Archer—leading wicket-taker. I know England; I am not expecting them to do that well, but I think he’s a superstar,” said Clarke. He feels Archer’s skill makes him a tough opponent for batters.
