Dimuth Karunaratne wants Lanka batsmen to learn from Rohit Sharma
Leeds, July 7 (CRICKETNMORE) Sri Lanka skipper Dimuth Karunaratne wants his boys to take a leaf out of Indias limited-overs deputy Rohit Sharmas book. Speaking after the loss to India in their final group stage game at Headingley on Saturday, the captain said that scoring big after getting settled is something that the Lankan batsmen can learn from the Indian opener.
"I think every time he (Rohit) gets a start, he keeps scoring big runs. That's what we want. He is fearless. And he knows how we're going to get a hundred and he's batting really well. At one time he wanted to take charge, but he knew which bowlers to respect. And those are the little things he has mastered really well. Simple plan is to keep batting and batting. That's what I want for the youngsters.
