“Clichés are the only things left to describe this man,” .The scenario, however, wasn’t the same about four years ago. ‘Maggiman’, ‘Mr talent’ and ‘Indian Shahid Afridi’ were the only ‘adjectives’ used to describe the Indian opener. What transpired in the last four years that ‘Mr Talent’ became Ro-Hitman Sharma?His first double had come in 2013 against the mighty Australians. That time he was the ‘Mr Talent’ of Indian cricket, who played brilliant shots on one ball and a foolish one to perish on the very next one. In fact, social media, although awe struck, felt it was a one time wonder or a fluke, to be more precise. But in 2014, the Mumbai Indians captain demolished the Lankans and that is when people started to realise that he is the hitman, and not the Maggiman.There is a set pattern of Rohit Sharma’s batting. He starts slowly and takes his own sweet time to reach to 50, the next 50 would come in a little quicker time and once he is past century, the carnage begins. His career graph looks similar; slow and unproductive in the beginning and now, in his middle phase, steady and notice worthy. Going by this, is Sharma’s career heading towards a ‘carnage’-like finish?
