During the interview, Rohit talked about plenty of things in length. When asked about his lazy elegance while batting, he turned down any such thing.

“When you’re playing a sport you cannot be lazy as simple as that you know maybe it may sound or it may look on television but if you’re lazy you cannot achieve what you want to achieve on the field you have to be at it like I said just now you have to be ahead of the game and you cannot be ahead of your opposition if you’re lazy,” Rohit said in the interview with Sky Sports.

The 34-year-old has been one of the best batsmen going around in world cricket. His heroics in the white-ball is unmatched while he has revived his Test career after being slotted in as an opener in the red-ball cricket.

He further mentioned one can’t play pull shot while being lazy against the bowlers who clock 145 kmph.

“You can’t hit that pull shot when there are guys bowling 145 plus and all that you can’t be lazy you’ll get hit on your head so I don’t think people understand that but yeah I mean it’s it’s fine they’ve been talking about this since I started playing for India oh he’s got lazy elegance and I don’t understand this term lazy elegance, there’s nothing called lazy elegance.” Rohit Sharma added.
