Rohit Sharma was not in the best of form leading up to the decider of the three-match series against New Zealand, as he could only manage to scores of 20 and 7 in the first two matches. But he came back strongly in the third ODI by scoring a blistering hundred that helped India to post a mammoth first innings score.
Later, Rohit revealed that before going out to bat he had an eye on the pre-match analysis done by the commentators and that helped him to sort out a couple of issues that were cropping up in his technique, which had led to his downfall in the first two matches.
“Pre-match analysis helped me to see where my head was falling. My head was falling a bit earlier, not coming in line. Enjoy playing in Kanpur, have good memories. Today was a perfect day,” said Rohit.
“NZ were competitive throughout. We had to be at our best to win. After the innings break, considering the kind of threat they bring to the table, it’s important to understand your game and play accordingly” he also praised New Zealand for being competitive in the series.
