The career of Team India’s legendary batsman and former captain Rohit Sharma is now nearing the end. It is being told that the ODI match against England at Lord’s on July 19 will be the last international match of his career. After this match he will not be selected in Team India. There are reports that the selectors have told Rohit that he will not be selected in the team for the World Cup 2027. However, former cricketer R Ashwin has given a strong reaction to such news. Ashwin has raised questions on the thinking of Team India and said why such a decision is being taken just a year before the World Cup. If a decision had to be taken, it should have been taken immediately after the Champions Trophy.
What did R Ashwin say?
R Ashwin Said in his YouTube channel Ash Ki Baat, ‘Players like Rohit-Virat deserve respect. Selectors should talk to the players directly because players will never believe that they will retire, they will always want to play. The decision on Rohit Sharma should have been taken after winning the Champions Trophy. Now only 12-15 months are left for the World Cup and it is quite late. Ashwin said that Team India will need Rohit and Virat Kohli in South Africa. Experience always helps.
Rohit Sharma did not have to come to England at all!
There is also a news on Rohit Sharma that the selectors did not want to select this player only for the England tour. But then he was selected and Yashasvi Jaiswal was dropped from the team even though he had scored a century in the previous ODI series itself.
Rohit’s form is bad
Rohit Sharma’s form and fitness are looking bad at the moment. This player suffered a hamstring injury during the IPL, after which he could not play 5 matches. Even in the Afghanistan series, he did not seem completely fit. Now he batted very slowly in the two matches in the England ODI series. Question marks were also raised on his strike rate in the powerplay. Overall, Rohit’s form and fitness also went against him. This is the reason why this player’s career is about to end.
