England fast bowler Mark Wood said Rohit Sharma is the toughest batter he has faced. Wood said Rohit plays the short ball well and can hit it hard on a good day. He also praised Virat Kohli as a strong competitor but said Kohli struggles with balls outside the off stump. Wood shared this on 27 Aug 2025 during a YouTube interview. He has faced both players many times in Tests and ODIs. Wood said Rohit’s bat looks big and he is hard to dismiss. He also respects Kohli’s skill but finds a way to bowl him by targeting the fourth and fifth stump line. Wood’s comments show the high level of Indian batting talent he has faced recently.
