Indian cricketer Rohit Sharma said that he was mentally prepared for the past two years to play as an opener in his Test career. “In West Indies they told me that it’s going to happen now, so I was prepared for past two years that at some stage I might have to open. So mentally I was ready for it,” said Sharma. He also emphasised that opening in the red ball cricket is a different game as compared to white ball cricket and mentally preparation is mandatory. Rohit scored unbeaten 115 runs in his first innings as an opener to take India to a commanding 202 for no loss against South Africa before the rain.
