LEEDS, England - India’s run-machine Rohit Sharma shared the secret of his red-hot form in the Cricket World Cup on Saturday, saying he approaches every match as if it was his first.

Skipper Virat Kohli rates him as the best one-day batsman while opening partner KL Rahul feels he is “from another planet” but Rohit attributes his form to his ability to enter every game as if it was his first.“I start fresh, I try to think I’ve not played any ODIs, not got any hundreds in the tournament. The challenge as a sportsman is to keep your head straight.”

The best way to reach milestones was not to bother about them and try to live in the present, said the opener. Asked if he would put his five hundreds in this World Cup above those double centuries, Rohit said nothing would matter if they failed to win the cup.
