Rohit Sharma's Blunt Verdict Amid Virat Kohli's Form Concerns, Says "When Seniors Aren't..."

The Wankhede Test against New Zealand offered an opportunity of redemption but barring Rishabh Pant and Shubman Gill, none of the Indian batters managed to step up. The biggest disappointment of all was the performance from stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Both ended the series with less than 100 runs each in the 3-match series. At the post-match press conference, India captain Rohit was bound to face some tough questions, especially regarding his and Virat’s form. Rohit didn’t hesitate, admitting that seniors not scoring runs is a big concern.

 

“It is a concern when seniors aren’t scoring runs. But what’s done is done. As a player, as a captain, as the team, we all have to look forward and see how we can correct what we didn’t manage to achieve here. We have an opportunity to do something special in Australia. We’ll focus on that now,” Rohit Sharma said after the Test match in Mumbai.
