Rohit Sharma
Former New Zealand all-rounder Scott Styris feels India opener Rohit Sharma might find it difficult to negotiate the swinging ball during the World Test Championship final against the Kiwis, beginning in Southampton on June 18. Head groundsman at Southampton, Simon Lee has made it clear that they are aiming to produce a fast and bouncy pitch, and Styris believes it can spell trouble for Rohit.
"It is pitch dependent... I think I can`t stress that enough. I think if the ball is moving around then Rohit will have his struggles...," Styris said during Star Sports` show `Game Plan`. "Rohit doesn`t really moves his feet a lot early in his innings. If that`s the case, then the swinging ball could be a problem for him." Styris also highlighted New Zealand`s pace attack and singled out Neil Wagner`s role in the mix.
