NEW DELHI, July 30: New Zealand speedster Lockie Ferguson has said it is challenging to bowl to Rohit Sharma as the Indian batting ace picks up the length very quickly.

In an interview with Sportskeeda, Ferguson was asked to name the batsmen he finds difficult to bowl at. �Good question, there�s quite a few. Rohit, I�ve found him very challenging,� Ferguson said.

�With him, if you don�t get him out quickly, he tends to go big. He picks up the length very quickly and where my strengths lie, batters play the wrong shot. He�s a world-class batter,� Ferguson added.

The Kiwi gun-quick also added Australia stars Steve Smith and David Warner alongside India captain Virat Kohli to the list.

�Steve Smith, David Warner, Virat Kohli � these guys are world-class for a reason. They�re always tough to bowl at but it feels good when you knock off the top order and have a chance to get to bowl to the middle order or the lower order,� Ferguson said. � IANS
