Amid speculations about his retirement from the India National Cricket Team, Rohit Sharma bounced back in style, scoring a historic century against England at the iconic Lord’s on July 19. Ahead of the match, there were some noises over his recent form and his future with the team. After the glorious century, those critics have put their fingers to their lips.
The batting coach of the Indian cricket team, Sitanshu Kotak, claimed that there was no extra pressure on Rohit Sharma and he was permitted to bat in his own style. Despite the assurance on behalf of the team, reports claiming a possible rift between the 39-year-old batter and the head coach, Gautam Gambhir, and the chief selector only intensified the situation.
Rohit Sharma didn't need to prove himself: Ravi Shastri
After the knock, Ravi Shastri expressed that Rohit Sharma did not need to prove himself, although he shut everyone down through his batting. The former India coach also said that if Rohit still has the desire to carry on his game, the management should allow him to do that.
"But if he has the desire to play, work hard at his game, and is still enjoying it, I think he should be given the opportunity for as long as he wants. The day will come when he feels he doesn't have it in him anymore, and he'll go," Shastri told Sky Cricket.
Rohit Sharma hit back at those who doubted on him
“Look, my job is with the bat, to come out, play, represent my country and represent the team. That's what I've been told to do since I made my debut, and that's what I'm going to continue doing."
"The noise has been there since I made my debut, and it will remain for as long as I play. It doesn't really matter too much. What matters is what I do on the field and how I contribute to the success of the team," Rohit said, speaking to bcci.tv after the match.
