KOCHI: Rohan Kunnummal, Kerala's fast-blossoming batting talent, has made scoring hundreds a habit. No wonder opportunities have come thick and fast for this youngster from Koyilandy, Kozhikode.
Last year, he became the first Kerala batter to score three successive hundreds in Ranji Trophy. He was rewarded for those performances with a call-up to the South Zone squad for the Duleep Trophy in September. He answered that call with scores of 143 and 77 in the semifinal against North Zone and followed it up with 31 and 93 against West Zone in the final. In the ongoing Vijay Hazare one-day tournament in Bengaluru, Rohan smashed two centuries against Goa and Bihar.
