Rohit Sharma had the opportunity to capitalize when chasing 158 in 16 overs against KKR, but he was unable to do so.
IPL 2024 for Rohit Sharma has gotten worse. The Indian cricket team captain, with his team, the Mumbai Indians, under duress, failed to score a major goal for the sixth straight game. Rohit got out for 19 in 24 balls against the Kolkata Knight Riders. He has scored 4, 11, 4, 8, 6, and so on throughout the last five innings. While Rohit had the opportunity to capitalize on chasing 158 in 16 overs, he was unable to do so. His failure dealt a severe blow to MI. In the end, the squad was defeated by 18 runs.
A shocked response was also heard in the opposing camp. Co-owners of the Kolkata Knight Riders Juhi Chawla, Suhann Khan (daughter of Shah Rukh Khan), and Ananya Pandey appeared stunned.
“What will worry him more will be how he’s leaving. He’s one of those guys that, when he’s playing straight down the field, not much can go wrong, but he has made an effort to add some finesse to the game. He’s popping the odd one up in the air, but he’s trying to grab the odd scoop here. He won’t be overly bothered if he finds a nice nut, but in all honesty, he’s kind of lost interest in soft dismissals.”It is likely that discussions over selecting the Indian team have taken place over the past few weeks. Suddenly you’re back in captaincy mode, with the pressure of striking the correct balance and deciding which player to pick. Stress may have increased as a result of choosing a side, attending the press conference, and justifying your decision, Pollock continued.
