Rohit Sharma has been tipped to shine in IPL 2026 opener against Kolkata Knight Riders at Wankhede. Former selector Kris Srikkanth said Rohit enjoys this match-up. “KKR used to be like halwa for Rohit Sharma. He is going to smash their bowling,” Srikkanth said. Rohit has scored 1,083 runs against KKR, including a century and six fifties. However, Sunil Narine remains a key threat. He has dismissed Rohit 10 times and kept his strike rate low. The contest could hinge on this key battle. (PC: X/MumbaiIndians)
