Former Indian national crisner team skipper Sourav Ganguly has launched an attack on Rohit Sharma due to the fall of the Indian team in the test crunch.
Sourav Gangaly, who was disappointed with the way Team India performed in a red ball crisis, also expressed a surprise for the bad shape of Rohit Sharma in format.
Team India lost the last 2 test series
Men in Blue faced defeats in the last two test series in which they competed against the National Cricket team in New Zealand and the Australian National Cricket team.
Prior to the series against Australia and New Zealand, India played a home test series with two games against the National Bangladesh National Team and registered a 2-0 dominant white right.
However, after that, things just went downhill for India as they faced an unpleasant white right from 0-3 in the hands of New Zealand at home. This was the first case of such a thing happening in the history of Indian cries.
Next time, they traveled to Australia for Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 and started a tour with an amazing victory in Perth, but then in the next few games they made bad appearances and faced a 1-3 defeat. It was the first time in the decade that India lost the Border-Gavascar series.
A player of his growth and ability can do much better – Sourav Ganguly
In the meantime, former BCCI President Sourav Ganguly expressed disappointment over the performance of Rohit Sharma in the test crunch and said that he should put on his cap to think in front of India Tour of England 2025.
“What surprised me is his shape in the red ball over the last 4-5 years. The player of his stature and ability can do much better than what he did. He has to wear his cap to think because we have 5 tests against England and that will be another hard series.
“Like as he was in Australia. It will be sewn; he will roam. India should perform in a red ball, but in the white ball he is one of the biggest ever,” Ganguly said during the Revsportz during Trailblazers 3.0.
I don’t know whether to continue playing a test – Sourav Ganguly
Sourav Gangaly was further welcomed by Rohit Sharm as a phenomenal captain and acknowledged his contribution in the revolution in the Indian team of the white ball.
However, he ordered Rohit to take the responsibility of turning things in the test crice and helping India to get better in the purest game format.
“The guidance is very important. I always said that Rohit Sharma is an amazing captain. Because I see it, I notice it when Captain India. I saw him Captain Mumbai Indian. I am captain on so many matches, so I can see the traits in the captain,” Gangaly added.
“I’m not surprised that he took the side to a bigger height in a white ball. I don’t know if he will continue to play a test cricky, but if he hears me, he should take responsibility to turn things in a red ball. India is not good in the red ball right now and they need to look at, find a way to play in England.
