Indian captain Rohit Sharma‘s challenging batting phase has persisted as he has had trouble finding form in all formats. He just scored two runs off seven deliveries in the first ODI against England in Nagpur before Saqib Mahmood got rid of him. The Champions Trophy and a vital Test series against England later this year have aroused concerns about Rohit’s continued poor form, even if the hosts earned a four-wicket victory.
One of the talking points has been Rohit Sharma skinny patch.
Sanjay Bangar, a former all-rounder and batting coach for India, has offered the Indian batting mainstay some advice, though. Bangar made the argument that overpracticing might not always be the answer. He thinks the opener would be better served taking a break from the nets and thinking back on his previous great innings.
He has gone through a stretch in his career where he hasn’t scored any runs. Excessive practice can sometimes be counterproductive. He can possibly view the period of his life when he had a lot of success by spending some time by himself. On Star Sports’ Match Point, Bangar stated, “Watch some videos and discover his routines and habits.”
Bangar cautioned that Rohit should not allow desperation to enter his thoughts because this could undermine his confidence in the future. The former coach says the Indian opener’s main priorities should be to remain calm and have faith in his innate abilities.
When you need to get your rhythm back, all of those things can be quite helpful. Remembering what works for you is necessary. He shouldn’t think in such a desperate manner,” Bangar continued.
Simply said, he doesn’t have many runs: Deep Dasgupta
In his assessment of Rohit’s form, former India wicketkeeper-batter Deep Dasgupta also stated that he thinks confidence, not technique, is the problem.
“I believe it’s a matter of confidence. He was batting fairly well. The queue was closing behind him. He had not become late. He wasn’t really missing the lines, and both Jofra Archer and (Saqib) Mahmood were bowling excellently. Therefore, I don’t believe there is a technique problem. It’s simply that assurance,” Dasgupta remarked.
Additionally, he clarified that the 37-year-old may be doubting himself when executing his preferred shots.
All of us have experienced that. When there are no runs, you are either late or early on the ball. You are questioning whether or not you should make that shot. It must be confidence when he begins to pull or flick after he gets out. It isn’t technical, I believe. Dasgupta continued, “He hasn’t scored many runs, but he is still the same hitter.
