Ahead of India’s tour of Australia, Glenn Maxwell has described India opener Rohit Sharma as an “absolute star in limited overs cricket”, adding that the fact that he has scored multiple double hundreds in ODI cricket is a commendable achievement.
“Rohit Sharma is an absolute star in limited overs cricket. Getting multiple double hundreds is no mean feat in ODI cricket,” Maxwell said in an interview with directhit.com.au.
“The game just looks easy when he’s out there batting. I suppose that’s the joy of watching him. He is able to hit the ball wherever he likes and is good against pace and spin. He hits the ball miles when he wants to.”
India will begin their tour with the first T20I of a three-match series starting at The Gabba in Brisbane on November 21.
