Rohit Sharma will now face the litmus test, will he retreat or will he take the field?
Rohit Sharma News: The Indian cricket team is now getting ready for the last test against Australia. This is the last stop of a long series, but Team India is surrounded by difficulties at the moment. Team India is lagging behind after losing the fourth match in the series being played between India and Australia. Not only this, captain Rohit Sharma is also continuously failing. Neither his bat is working nor is he able to do anything as captain that is worth remembering. Rohit Sharma also played in the middle order in this series and after this he also came to his old place i.e. for opening, but he did not score runs anywhere. In such a situation, he has to face the litmus test. Now it remains to be seen whether they will back down from this or will win again.
Rohit Sharma has been a flop in the last three test series.
For Rohit Sharma, it is not that the Australia series itself is going bad, earlier when Team India was playing a three-Test series against New Zealand at home, even then he was not scoring runs with his bat. If we talk about the current Border-Gavaskar Trophy, he has scored only 31 runs in five innings. Earlier, when the Test series was being played with New Zealand, Rohit Sharma had scored a disappointing 91 runs in six innings and only 42 runs in the series against Bangladesh. Overall, he has scored just 164 runs in 15 innings, an average of less than 11. This does not suit a batsman like Rohit Sharma at all.
Had Rohit not been the captain, he would have been out of the team.
If these figures were of any other batsman other than Rohit Sharma, then perhaps by now he would not only have been out of the playing eleven but would also have been out of the team, but since Rohit’s name is big and he is also the captain, questions arise. It is happening, but there is no such thing as being out of the team. For example, if we see, Shubman Gill was kept out in the fourth test probably because he was not scoring runs with his bat. Whatever may be said, but this is the truth.
The final of the World Test Championship and the Border Gavaskar Trophy are at stake.
The difficulty in front of Rohit Sharma is that he not only has to score his runs but also has to infuse a new zeal and enthusiasm in the team, so that after the defeat, the Indian team comes into the field with the same enthusiasm. Now, not only is the final of the World Test Championship at stake, from the race of which Team India may be out, but there is also the question of the Bord Gavaskar Trophy, which Team India has captured for the last four times. If Team India loses the Sydney match, it will be a huge loss, this has to be kept in mind. Meanwhile, it remains to be seen with what strategy Rohit Sharma enters the field in the next match, so that he can answer his critics.
