“Rohit Sharma failed for the fourth time in a row”: Former Indian star addresses elephant in the room ahead of T20 World Cup

By | Published | No Comments

It’s been a few days since the Indian cricket team was announced for the 2024 T20 World Cup. What is quite interesting is that most of the players who have been included in the team have not been performing well since their inclusion in this prestigious event. And it also includes India captain Rohit Sharma and vice-captain Hardik Pandya. On Friday, his IPL 2024 team Mumbai Indians reached the brink of elimination after losing to Kolkata Knight Riders. Rohit Sharma, named as an impact substitute, scored only 11 runs as MI failed to chase 170.

Pandya was out for 1 run and took two wickets for 44 runs in four overs. For Rohit Sharma, this was his fourth consecutive low score in IPL 2024. His scores in the last three matches have been – 6 (vs RR), 8 (vs DC) and 4 (vs LSG).

Former India and KKR player Aakash Chopra raised this issue in a video.

“Whoever is named in the T20 World Cup squad, Yashasvi Jaiswal is the only exception, nobody is doing anything. I know Jasprit Bumrah took three wickets against KKR, Suryakumar Yadav also scored (56) Okay, you understood right. He is out for the fourth time in Rajasthan, Lucknow and now he has not scored runs in four innings.

“Then Hardik Pandya comes to bat at No. 7, Tim David at No. 8. Why? Is it about left-right combinations. If there is no left-right combination, will you stop batting or what? ?”

India will begin its World Cup campaign against Ireland at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on June 05, 2024, followed by a crucial match against Pakistan at the same venue on June 09, 2024. After this, India will play USA and Canada on June 12 and 15 respectively.

Squad: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Hardik Pandya (Vice Captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (WK), Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal. , Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. Siraj.

Reserve-Shubhman Gill, Rinku Singh, Khalil Ahmed and Avesh Khan
