‘He is overweight…’ Former cricketer raised questions on Rohit Sharma’s fitness

Talking to InsideSport regarding Rohit’s fitness, Daryl Cullen said, “Look how much difference there is in the physical condition of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Due to Rohit’s overweight, he is not a cricketer who can play cricket for a long time. Rohit’s physical condition is not so good that he can play four to five day matches. This is not the first time that Rohit’s fitness has been questioned, this has been seen many times before.

Before Australia, Rohit Sharma’s poor performance was also seen in the three-match home Test series against New Zealand. He also scored a half-century in this series. If we talk about the last 12 innings, the captain could not even touch double figures in 8 innings. Rohit’s form has deteriorated so much that after 6 years he has fallen out of the top-30 in the ICC Test batsmen’s rankings.

Why will you open in the third test?

The Perth Test saw Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul opening the innings, as Rohit Sharma was not a part of the squad for this match and Jasprit Bumrah was made the captain in his place. However, Rohit made a comeback in the Adelaide Test and gave up his regular batting position for KL Rahul. Now the thing to be seen will be whether Rohit will bat as an opener again in the Gabba Test?
