India has faced a clean sweep at the hands of New Zealand in their own home for the first time in 90 years of Test cricket history. Captain Rohit Sharma is also being trolled a lot for this defeat. After this series, Team India now has to tour Australia.
After the series defeat against New Zealand, many questions are being raised about Rohit Sharma’s captaincy. In such a situation, a veteran Indian player has even demanded a new captain for the Australia tour. Let us tell you who has made this demand and what is the reason behind it.
Rohit Sharma will not be on Australia tour
Team India captain Rohit Sharma may miss the opening match on the Australia tour. According to reports, Rohit Sharma will not be available for the first two matches on the Australia tour due to his personal reasons. If he does not play, then in his absence, vice-captain Jaspreet Bumrah can be seen captaining. In the absence of Rohit Sharma, there will be changes in the team in his place. Due to this, the team has already sent KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel for the Australia tour. Meanwhile, former veteran player of Team India Sunil Gavaskar has given a new statement regarding this tour.
Sunil Gavaskar gave a big statement about Rohit Sharma
Former Indian team veteran Sunil Gavaskar has made a big statement about captain Sharma before the Australia tour. He has clearly said that if Sharma is not available in the initial matches, then BCCI should announce a new captain for the entire series. If reports are to be believed, Sharma will not play for the first two matches of the 5-match series. Recently, Team India has faced a clean sweep at the hands of New Zealand and many questions are being raised about Sharma’s captaincy in this series.
Rohit Sharma’s form also became a concern
Along with the batting of Team India captain Sharma, his captaincy is also under question. Runs have not been seen coming from his bat in the Bangladesh and New Zealand series. Along with this, after the defeat in the New Zealand series, questions are also being raised on his captaincy. In the last 10 innings, only one half-century has come from his bat. His performance was poor in both the matches of the Bangladesh series and after this, his performance against New Zealand recently has also been disappointing.
