Indian captain Rohit Sharma has tallied his World Cup 2023 runs at an astonishing strike-rate of 122.77 so far. The dashing opening batsman has been consistently laying up team’s thunderous foundation at the top to set up a tone for the middle-order to anchor the rest of the Indian innings.

Having taken nearly every attack to the cleaners in the tournament, Sharma took up a new challenge ahead of India’s upcoming league fixture against Netherlands. Currently based in Bangalore’s M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, the in-form opener recently went up against his own bowling teammates during a nets training session.

After caning nearly every bowling attack of the 2023 World Cup, Rohit Sharma faced his own in-form bowling arsenal comprising of Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Shardul Thakur during a recent outing in the nets.

Showing no compassion for his teammates, the 36-year-old unfurled solid technical defense and outrageous stroke-play, including his trademark pull shot at one stage of his session. The International Cricket Council (ICC) recently shared a glimpse of Sharma’s faceoff with his teammates, which instantly went viral across social media.
