“Rohit Sharma plays spin really well so batting at 4 shouldn’t be a concern” – Wasim Jaffer on India’s batting combination for World Cup

Former Indian opener Wasim Jaffer reckons skipper Rohit Sharma should bat at No. 3 or 4 in the World Cup given that he has a good game against spin.

He further stated that young left-hander Yashasvi Jaiswal should open with Virat Kohli in the mega event.

“Kohli and Jaiswal should open in the World Cup imo. Rohit & SKY should bat 3 and 4 depending on the start we get. Rohit plays spin really well so batting at 4 shouldn’t be a concern,” Jaffer wrote on X.

Rohit Sharma has batted 12 times at No. 3 and 4 positions in the shortest format. The right-handed batter has aggregated 315 runs at an average of 39.37 with four half-centuries to his name.
