Rohit Sharma will step down as captain, reveals former Indian cricketer
Former Indian cricket team captain Sunil Gavaskar has predicted that Rohit Sharma will step down as captain if he does not perform well in the upcoming Test matches.
"If Rohit Sharma flops in Melbourne and Sydney, he will resign and will not wait for the selectors' decision. He will definitely play the last two Test matches, but if Rohit Sharma does not score runs in the last two matches, I think he will step down as captain," Gavaskar predicted.
He speculated that Rohit will not become a burden on the team. "He is a cricketer who cares a lot about the team."
Rohit Sharma has scored only 152 runs in the last 13 Test innings at an average of 11.83, for which he is facing a lot of criticism.
Sharma is currently under criticism due to his recent form and leadership decisions, particularly following India’s losses against New Zealand and Australia.
