ROHIT SHARMA CONFIRMS HIS BATTING POSITION!!!

Rohit Sharma has announced ahead of the start of the IPL that he will be opening the batting for sure in this season.

Rohit Sharma had mostly batted at numbers 3, 4 and 5 last season and managed only 286 runs which was his worst performance in an IPL season. His contribution to the team is extremely vital for Mumbai Indians success.

Rohit Sharma has made this move to open the batting throughout this IPL, since that's the position that has brought him most success internationally and also having experienced players like Yuvraj Singh in the middle order will give him some assurance.

This is a welcome move as far as Mumbai Indians is concerned and their fans will definitely be excited.

Ladies & gentlemen, here's the news that will delight you. Hitman @ImRo45 has made it clear that he will open the innings for @mipaltan in #VIVOIPL pic.twitter.com/hoIJ2nbeHA
