IPL 2018: 5 batsmen who can take up the opening duties for Mumbai Indians

#1 Rohit Sharma

Recently, Rohit Sharma crossed the 7000-run mark in T20 cricket

I must say Mumbaikars are dominating the list as we have another contender from Mumbai. Rohit's addition to the list should come in as no surprise. The Hitman is one of the kinds who will always feature in the all-time T20 XI of every cricket fan and pundit. He is the perfect blend of power, elegance, sagacity, and timing. As Virat Kohli always say, he is a second or two ahead of every batsman in the world.

With no Parthiv Patel, Jos Buttler, and Lendl Simmons in their ranks, Mumbai Indians will like Rohit Sharma to take the matter into his hands. For quite a while now, in IPL, Rohit hasn't been opening the innings for MI. However, this time around, with minimal experience in the top-order, we can expect Rohit Sharma to open the innings for MI.
