Five reasons Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma will form a deadly opening partnership

4. Running between the wickets

Even though Sehwag was not the most agile player on the field, he had a telepathic understanding with Gambhir when it came to running between the wickets by virtue of their coming from the same Ranji team. Dhawan and Sharma have better legs and they did not show any catastrophic running either. They were swift with the singles and called well. It’s significant that they develop this aspect of their game together.
