Rohit Is In The XI For Batting; He Must Maintain Focus: Captaincy, according to a former Indian selector, is a “additional responsibility.”

Former India cricketer Saba Karim has expressed concern about captain Rohit Sharma’s batting form since taking over the leadership role.

Team India dominated Sri Lanka in a 3-0 T20I series  victory at home, led by Rohit Sharma.  With the third  T20I win in Dharamsala. India surpassed Afghanistan and Romania for the most consecutive victories in the format, with 12.

This team has been so dominant at home that even a new-look team has looked fairly comfortable against  the likes of New Zealand, the West Indies, and now Sri Lanka. Skipper Rohit Sharma was spot on with his  bowling changes and field placements. But he lacked consistency with the bat, which he is well known for.

Rohit scored 44, 1, and 5 points in each of the three matches. This sparked a debate, with former  wicketkeeper-batter and selector Saba Karim expressing his concerns  about India captain  Virat  Kohli’s  recent batting form.

Rohit Is In The XI For Batting; He Must Maintain Focus: Captaincy, according to a former Indian selector, is a “additional responsibility.”

Rohit Sharma’s batting prowess has earned him a spot in the XI. Captaincy comes with additional responsibilities. When it comes to batting, he should not lose focus. Many times, we’ve seen captains struggle to perform well in their primary skill. “This should not have happened,” Karim said on Khelneeti.

He went on to say that this was only the “beginning phase” for Rohit as a captain. And that the balancing act between leading the team and batting could come soon in upcoming matches, with the T20 World Cup 2022 in Australia coming up later this year.

Rohit Sharma is only at the beginning of his career. He will gradually realize how crucial his runs are to the  team.

His performance in Australia (during the T20 World Cup) will be critical, as the grounds are large and the opposition has top-tier bowlers. So, yes, Rohit Sharma needs to work on this,” Saba Karim concluded.
