Mumbai, December 27:  India’s dashing batsman Rohit Sharma, who has caught the attention of young budding cricketer with his flamboyance and explosive batting style, spent quality time interacting with young trainees at the Rohit Sharma-CricKindom Cricket Academy, at Islam Gymkhana on   Thursday   afternoon. The Mumbai-based Rohit shared his experience with the upcoming cricketers and offered them advice on different aspects of the game. When a trainee informed him that he could not handle short-pitch bowling and was afraid of being hit, the batting genius promptly told the youngster that there was nothing to get scared about. “If you are frightened of being hit and getting injured this game or any other sport is not ideal for you.

Thus, there is huge unrealized export market for India’s farm commodities, which can be explored by food processing companies and mega food parks that are envisaged under the central government scheme.
