Team India is trailing 1-0 in the series against New Zealand. Team India’s batsmen have disappointed a lot in this series. KL Rahul was shown the way out of the team in the second match due to poor performance.
But apart from KL Rahul, there is another batsman whose bat is rusty but no one can remove him from the team. Due to poor performance, this player may announce retirement after the New Zealand series. Let us tell you who we are talking about.
KL Rahul ruled out of Pune Test
KL Rahul was facing the threat of being dropped from the team for the past several matches. After the defeat in the first match, the team management finally decided to drop KL Rahul. KL Rahul’s bat was looking silent for a long time. Runs were not coming out of his bat. He flopped in both the innings of the first match against New Zealand, for which he has to pay the price by being dropped from the team. In the first innings of this match, Rahul (KL Rahul) got out on zero, while when the team desperately needed his support, he could score only 12 runs in the second innings.
Rohit Sharma will retire soon
Team India’s captain Rohit Sharma may soon announce his retirement from cricket. His age is increasing and on the other hand his bat is also not supporting him. After the Bangladesh series, he is not able to score runs against New Zealand as well. He scored a century in the match played against England in Dharamsala, since then his bat has been silent. Rohit, who came to play in the first innings of the Pune Test, could not even open his account and was bowled by Saurabh.
Rohit will have to do wonders in Pune Test
If Team India has to win the second Test match being played in Pune, then it has become very important for Rohit Sharma to score runs. In the first innings of this match, on the strength of Sundar, Team India has restricted New Zealand to 259 runs. Now if India has to win, then it will have to score big in the first innings itself and take the lead. If Team India succeeds in doing this, then it can win this match. In the second innings, Rohit Sharma will also have to show his strength with the bat.
