Rohit Sharma gives his assessment on the new batting line-up

Meanwhile, the Hitman gave his assessment on the speculations of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli opening the batting for India again in the future. Sharma said, "I am sure we need to sit and analyse and collect our thoughts on what would be the right thing for the team. If that means he (Kohli) has to open with me, so be it. There is still a lot of time before the World Cup starts. We’ve got a good amount of time, there’s the IPL in between and I’m hearing there will be a few T20s as well before the World Cup. Things might change as and when we get closer to the World Cup," he concluded.

Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma is set to participate in the ODI series against England starting on Tuesday. Following which, he will join Mumbai Indians team 2021 training camp. The Mumbai Indians team 2021 will take on RCB in the first match of the IPL this season on April 9.
