Talking about the ongoing WTC final, Rohit Sharma walked out to open the innings for team India alongside Shubman Gill. For the unversed, both the cricketers do not have any prior experience of opening in England. However, they made sure to give team India a solid start.

Yes, India could not have asked for a better start from their openers in a bowler-friendly conditions.  While Rohit rotated the strike well before driving any overpitched deliveries with his usual panache, on the other hand, Gill plucked a couple of confident pulls and strokes down the ground.  The duo gave India its best start in 10 years and 29 innings in the difficult conditions of England.
