‘Hitman’ Rohit Sharma turns 31 today. Sharma is a magnificent Indian cricketer who has played 25 Tests, 180 ODIs and 79 T20Is so far and is the only cricketer in the world with three double tons in ODIs. Currently, he is busy leading the Mumbai Indians (MI) franchise in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) which has a crucial task ahead—winning all the remaining games in the tournament in order to qualify for the playoffs.
Rohit Sharma turns 31
Rohit himself had a rough start in the tournament. In the initial games, he remained quiet with the bat and his team toppled in most of the matches. However, he and his team came back strong against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) where Rohit played the captains knock and won the game on April 28. Since then, it’s expected that MI would repeat what they did back in 2015, ie end up winning the title despite starting poorly.

But besides all these messages, there was one which was special in its own way. It was from Virender Sehwag who compared Rohit to Bollywood’s superstar Salman Khan’s character ‘Tiger‘ and termed him his ‘favourite batsman’ with no shortage of talent.
