Dubai: Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma stated that his bat lasts about a month or two when he is playing the shortest format and also revealed the number of bats that he is carrying for the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The Mumbai Indians skipper also said that the longevity of a bat is dependent on the format that he is playing.

“My bat usually lasts long, pretty long. I would say about four to five months. But in the end, everything depends on the format I am playing. When you are playing the T20 format, you need to do a lot of hitting, a lot of innovative shots you need to practice, so there are chances that your bat might break,” Rohit said in a video posted on the official Twitter handle of Mumbai Indians.

“During the IPL and T20 format, my bat usually lasts for a month or two. Especially now that we know that the times are tough, we do not know if the courier will reach on time (or not), so I have taken around nine bats with me,” he further added.

Rohit Sharma-led Mumbai Indians will next face off against  Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Monday, September 28 at the Dubai International Stadium.
