Since India’s loss in the 20-20 World Cup 2022, skipper Rohit Sharma has been facing a lot of flak for his captaincy. During the World Cup, there were many decisions were questioned. Now, after the Men In Blue’s one-wicket loss to Bangladesh, once again the fans have been bashing Sharma. Meanwhile, the right-hander has been getting a lot of support from Yuvraj Singh.

Apparently, a media house conducted a poll asking fans to rate Sharma’s captaincy out of 10. In reply, Singh rated it 10 out of as many.

We didn’t have enough runs in the end: Rohit Sharma

Talking about the game, the Rohit Sharma-led side was restricted to 187 all-out. Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan took a five-wicket haul while Ebadot Hussain took four. In reply, Indian bowlers fought back and took nine wickets for 136 runs. However, they failed to defend the target and lost the game by one wicket.

After the game, Sharma said “It was a very close game. We did very well to come back into the game. We did not bat well. We bowled pretty well and kept them under pressure till the end. They held their nerves in the backend. If you look back at how we bowled, of course the last few overs, we would have liked to get a wicket. We kept taking wickets all through. It wasn’t enough runs. Another 30-40 runs would have made a difference. With KL and Washy, we could have got there. Unfortunately, we lost wickets in the middle, and it is not easy to come back.

“The pitch was a bit challenging, the odd ball was turning. You have to understand how to play. There are no excuses, we are used to such types of conditions. We need to look at how to bat against their spinners in these conditions. The genes are there, these guys grew up playing in such conditions. It is all about handling pressure. Once you do, it gives you confidence. It is important to learn how to handle those pressure situations. Hopefully, we change things around in the next game.”
