Team India captain Rohit Sharma is currently struggling with very poor form. Something similar was seen in the first innings of Mumbai Test also. He has come to play a Test match in his home ground after 11 years. But even on this special occasion he could not do anything amazing with the bat. He managed to make a good start in the first innings of this match, but could not maintain his rhythm. So far, he has been able to score only 1 half-century in 5 innings of the current series, hence his poor form has also increased the tension of the team.

Rohit Sharma's bat did not work again

Spinners have dominated this series so far. But Rohit Sharma has failed to save his wicket even against fast bowlers. Even in the first innings of the Mumbai Test, he became the victim of fast bowler Matt Henry. He returned to the pavilion after scoring 18 runs on 18 balls in this innings. During this, 3 fours were seen from his bat. Let us tell you, in this series, Rohit has been out against a fast bowler for the third time, which is the highest compared to other players.

Worse than the bowlers in this list

This is not the first time in the current year that Rohit Sharma has returned to the pavilion after losing his wicket at the beginning of the innings. He has been out on a score of less than 20 runs 11 times this year, which is the highest among Indian batsmen. Jasprit Bumrah is at second place in this list. Jasprit Bumrah has been out on a score of less than 20 runs 8 times in Tests this year. This has happened with Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin also 8-8 times this year.

This poor form of Rohit Sharma is a big tension for Team India. In the last 9 innings of the test match, he has scored only 122 runs at an average of 13.55. Apart from this, his scores in the New Zealand series are 18 runs, 8 runs, 0 runs, 52 runs and 2 runs. That is, he is continuously failing to give a good start to the team, which is one of the biggest reasons for Team India lagging behind in this series. After this series, the Indian Test team has to go on a tour of Australia, where an important Test series will be played. Rohit scoring runs in this series is going to be very important for the team.
