The end of Rohit Sharma’s international career is considered near. Rohit may be out of Team India after this match to be held at Lord’s on July 19. It is being told that the selectors have told him that they will not give him a chance in the World Cup 2027. In his place, young players like Yashasvi Jaiswal will get opportunities. Amidst such news coming on Rohit, former Pakistan cricketer Basit Ali has said a big thing. He says that whatever is happening with Rohit today can happen with Virat tomorrow also. Basit even said that along with Rohit, Virat Kohli can also retire at Lord’s.
Can Virat also retire along with Rohit?
Basit Ali Said on his YouTube channel, ‘If today is Rohit’s turn, then the next turn could be Virat’s. Looking at the way Virat retired from Test cricket, it is possible that both of them may announce their retirement at Lord’s. Basit said that if too much pressure is applied then such a decision can be taken. Which would be a big mistake because cricket fans still want to see Virat playing. Let us tell you that both Rohit and Virat had said goodbye to T20 cricket together and both of them also left Test cricket almost together.
‘Rohit should keep playing’
Basit Ali said that Rohit Sharma should keep playing as long as he is performing well. He said, ‘If Rohit performs well then he should keep playing. If you are judging him only on the two ODI matches he played in England, then it is wrong.
Rohit’s form is bad
Let us tell you that along with increasing age and decreasing fitness, Rohit’s form is also going against him. Rohit Sharma has been able to score only one half-century in 10 innings this year and his average is a little more than 30 runs per match. On the other hand, a player like Yashasvi Jaiswal is out of the team, hence additional pressure is being created on Rohit.
