There are legends in the game. There are big legends in the game, but only a few can match the stage in the standing of a certain Rohit Sharma. The former captain of the Indian cricket team who is now
playing a single format which is the men’s Senior 50 over cricket for India has had a string of illustrate success is where it comes to playing in England. Most recently in the final one day international of the series, which was played at the historic Lord’s Cricket ground in England, Rohit Sharma emerged with a fantastic century, which happened to be his eighth as an overseas batter in England.
So mainly important and full of bravado was a knock that Rohit Sharma’s brilliant 138 actually emerged the highest individual score ever registered by an Indian batsmen playing at Lord’s the iconic venue.
Jos Buttler said, “Rohit Sharma has been one of my favourites for such a long time. I love the way he plays, the way he captains. I used to look at him when I was the captained. I wanted his signed jersey, he wrote a nice message and gave it”. (Love Of Cricket). pic.twitter.com/jPkJiiLAr8

Even though it was a century, in the end, it turned out to be an effort marked with of India went down to England and lost the series.
But someone who stayed in great admiration of the having witnessed it live as a first hand experience was Rohit Sharma’s opponent in the England colours, Jos Buttler. A great player himself, and someone who is severe against both spin and pace, the great right handed English batter was full of rich praise for the veteran and handy Indian opening batter.
And in case you are wondering, just why was such amazing praise directed by Buttler towards Rohit Sharma, the following is the reason-
“Rohit Sharma has been one of my favourites for such a long time. I love the way he plays, the way he captains. I used to look at him when I was the captained. I wanted his signed jersey, he wrote a nice message and gave it”.
The next big focus It is something quite considerable when such glowing admiration comes from a tall achiever in the game like Buttler himself. And where it stands right now in the game, Rohit Sharma, much like his close Comrade Virat Kohli is focusing big time on the next 50 overs World Cup, the mega ICC events for 2027. With nearly 12,000 runs in the ODI format, there’s little doubt what Rohit can achieve for his India in that particular campaign.
