While the elegant pull shots of Rohit Sharma are world-renowned, the Mumbai Indians opener also plays some classy and effortless flick shots. He showcased the same during his innings against Gujarat Titans to kick-start his IPL 2024 campaign with style.

Despite the loss of Ishan Kishan in the first over, Rohit Sharma, no more the MI captain now, got his side off to a rapid start in the chase of 169. The senior opener cracked 24 runs in the first 16 balls that he faced as MI raced to 52 in the powerplay and got themselves on track for the chase.

During this phase, Rohit Sharma played a jaw-dropping flick shot to senior pacer Umesh Yadav. Such sweet was the timing and connection, coupled with the power in Rohit’s wrists, that the ball sailed over wide long-on for a stunning six. It was simply so effortless from the 36-year-old batsman who has been in sensational form since the World Cup last year.

It was a full delivery from Umesh. Rohit covered the line of the stumps and flicked it with pure timing. The ball just crossed the boundary line and hit the hoarding.

Meanwhile, talking about the match, Jasprit Bumrah bowled superbly and returned with figures of 3/14, which helped MI restrict GT to 168/6. For GT, no batter could score a fifty with Sai Sudharsan being the top-scorer with 45, followed by Shubman Gill, the new GT captain, who scored 31.
