Rohit Sharma Shares Batting Tips with Abdul Samad Ahead of IPL 2025 Match
Before the game against Lucknow Super Giants, Rohit Sharma was seen talking to Abdul Samad. The experienced batsman was explaining to the young player how to hit sixes. He was also talking about how the pitch conditions can affect hitting sixes.
Speaking in a video shared by Lucknow Super Giants via their official Twitter handle, Rohit Sharma said: “Hit it either off this leg or off that leg. You know why I’m saying this, it’s because every wicket has a pace. It’s different everyday, today the humidity is more so there will be moisture, if it’s less humid and more windy then the pitch is better to bat on. You won’t get that knowledge until the match starts.”
