Rohit Sharma has always been one of those cricketers, who makes the art of batting look so easy. The flamboyant batsman has been sensational over the years for the Indian National Cricket Team in limited overs format. Meanwhile, he found a fan in the name of Inzamam-Ul Haq from his rival nation.

Having already scored a century in the tournament, Rohit Sharma will be eager to give his side another good start regardless of whether India is batting first or second. Meanwhile, the words of praise from Inzamam-Ul-Haq would surely come as a positive sign for Rohit ahead of the clash.

The India-Pakistan clash is undoubtedly the biggest match in the group stage of the ongoing ICC World Cup 2019 which is being played in England and Wales.

Rohit Sharma bats in an effortless manner – Inzamam-Ul-Haq

Ahead of the game, the current Pakistan selector Inzamam-Ul-Haq had a candid chat with Times of India, where he revealed a quite a few interesting aspects of the game.

Further, he went on to praise the Indian skipper Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma for their stylish play. Inzamam confessed that he is a fan of Rohit Sharma, who plays the game so effortlessly.

“I love to watch Rohit Sharma bat. He bats in an effortless manner like he has all the time in the world. I like Babar Azam too. His strokeplay is attractive. When I watch both these batsmen, I get a feeling of having ‘fun’ at the ground,” the former Pakistan batsman added.

Coming to the Indo-Pak game, the record books and the current form will see India as favourites. However, both history and the form book will go out of the window when India meet Pakistan in their league match at the ICC World Cup 2019 in Manchester.

While India sits pretty in the top half of the table, Pakistan is in the bottom half. And with both sides looking to strengthen their chances of qualifying for the semi-final with a win in this crucial encounter. Hopefully, rain stays away from the game.
