Rohit Sharma News: About six months ago, hardly anyone would have thought that Team India's star batsman and captain Rohit Sharma would have to struggle so hard to save his career. Rohit, who was once considered one of the most reliable batsmen in Indian cricket, is today facing a serious performance crisis. His failure in Test cricket in recent months and now a poor start in the Ranji Trophy has made his situation even more difficult.

Questions on performance in Test cricket

Rohit's performance in the Test series against New Zealand and Australia was very poor. On the Australia tour, he could score only 31 runs in 5 innings, which is one of the weakest performances of his career. This failure has raised questions about his place in the Test team. Although Rohit said that his career is not over yet, his recent statistics are not in his favor.

Attempt to return to Ranji Trophy

Rohit turned to Ranji Trophy to improve the situation. This was a big opportunity for Rohit, who played Ranji after 10 years, but his start in the match between Mumbai and Jammu and Kashmir was very disappointing. In this match played at Mumbai's BKC ground, Rohit was out after scoring only 3 runs in 19 balls. Just like he lost his wicket while playing a pull shot on Pat Cummins' ball in Melbourne, in the same way he got stuck on Umar Nazir's ball here.

Great performance of the past

This is the same Rohit Sharma, who scored two centuries in the Test series against England about a year ago. In the T20 World Cup too, he played an important role in winning the title for Team India with his captaincy and batting. After this, he batted brilliantly in the ODI series against Sri Lanka, when the rest of the batsmen were failing. But the decline in his performance in the last six months has pushed his career towards uncertainty.

Rohit has limited time left

After failing in the first innings of the Ranji Trophy, Rohit has a maximum of 5-6 chances left to prove himself. He needs to regain his rhythm in the second innings of this match and two innings of another Ranji match starting on January 30. Apart from this, the upcoming three ODIs against England can also prove to be decisive for him.

Question of the future

This time is very important for Rohit Sharma. If he is able to improve his performance in these upcoming innings, then he and Team India can get relief before the Champions Trophy. But if this does not happen, then this big tournament can prove to be the last of his career.

The contribution that Rohit Sharma has made to Indian cricket with his game and leadership is not hidden from anyone. His fans and team management hope that he will soon overcome this crisis and return to his old form and once again become the hero of Indian cricket.
