Rohit Sharma shares 'priceless lessons' with India U19 team

Bengaluru:India Under-19 team received some "priceless lessons" from Rohit Sharma at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) here on Friday.

The India ODI and T20I captain Rohit, who is undergoing rehabilitation at NCA, shared some advice with the young boys ahead of their Under-19 Asia Cup.The Under-19 Asia Cup will take place in the UAE from December 23.

"Priceless lessons. #TeamIndia white-ball captain @ImRo45 made most of his rehab time as he addressed India’s U19 team during their preparatory camp at the NCA in Bengaluru," the BCCI tweeted.

Rohit, who played at Under-19 level in 2006, was set to travel to South Africa for the three-match Test series. However, the newly appointed vice-captain of India Test side was ruled out due to a hamstring injury which he sustained during a practice session in Mumbai.

He was subsequently replaced by Priyank Panchal, who led India A against South Africa A in three four-day matches. Rohit is expected to recover between three to four weeks, which means he would be able to travel South Africa for the ODI leg.(UNI)
