NEW DELHI: Former cricketer Atul Wassan has voiced his concerns over India captain Rohit Sharma’s recent struggles, pointing to a key mistake in his comeback strategy during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Wassan believes that Rohit’s decision to bat at number six, instead of his usual opening role, upon returning to the side in the second Test against Australia, has contributed to his dip in form.
In just six months, Rohit has gone from being hailed as a hero for leading India to a T20 World Cup victory to facing scrutiny for his inconsistent performances.
