Rohit Sharma‘s disappointing scoring run in IPL 2024 continues to bother the fans ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, which is scheduled to start in less than a month’s time. The former Mumbai Indians captain scored only four runs in MI’s home match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. During this patchy run of form, Sharma has scored a combined 33 runs in the last five innings. No wonder, the fans are concerned about the form of Indian captain.

The 37-year-old had a disappointing outing once again as he could manage only four runs against SRH, falling to his old nemesis Pat Cummins.
The Australian ODI World Cup winning captain holds a solid record against Rohit in the T20s matches, dismissing the Indian batter four times in just nine innings.
So it was not a surprise that the fans took to internet to show their disappointment at another poor batting show from Rohit Sharma.
at this point the selection of Rohit Sharma in the t20 world cup should be on question! probably the worst performing and worst current form player out of the 15

#RohitSharma doesn't have it in him anymore, and this fact is undeniable. In this format at least.
