As the much awaited day of IPL 2020 is all set to take place in two days time, fans are impatient to watch Mumbai Indians (MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on the first day of the tournament.
The two most successful teams of Indian Premier League (IPL) will lock horns on September 19 in Abu Dhabi.
Before the big clash can take place, former Australian fast bowler Brett Lee, who is currently in Mumbai as part of the IPL broadcasting team revealed the name of the ‘most dangerous batsmen in the world till date’.
Lee, was recently doing a Q&A session on Instagram when he was asked by a fan to name the ‘most dangerous batsmen in the world till date’ to which he answered saying Rohit Sharma.
The former Australia players also said that he is predicting ‘big things’ for Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma.
“The most important thing for Rohit Sharma is firstly to score runs for Mumbai Indians. He has got to be a good leader but I think being a good leader is a combination of leading from the front in terms of scoring runs and hopefully the rest of the team will take care of itself.” Brett Lee said on Star Sports show ‘Cricket Connected’.
Looking into Rohit's score table- he is the third highest run-scorer of IPL with 4898 runs in 188 matches at an average of 31.60. He has scored those runs at a strike rate of 130.82 and has also hit 194 sixes - the second, most by an Indian player.
Not just Brett Lee, even Delhi Capitals head coach and former Australia captain Ricky Ponting also referred Rohit as the most dangerous player of Mumbai Indians for IPL 2020.
