Legendary batter Sunil Gavaskar is “very happy” that India captain Rohit Sharma will play Ranji Trophy for Mumbai. On Saturday, Rohit confirmed his availability for the sport towards Jammu and Kashmir throughout a press convention. This comes after the BCCI made it necessary for the gamers to take part in home cricket. Rohit scored 31 runs in 5 innings within the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy towards Australia, elevating doubts over his future within the Indian crew. Gavaskar feels Rohit will get a lot wanted follow to work on the errors he made amid his latest stoop in type.
“Yes, it’s a good thing because, look, he didn’t get runs in Australia, so he knows he needs to spend time out in the middle. How much net practice you have or however many throwdowns you face, batting in a game, feeling the ball in the middle of the bat, knowing that a mistake will send you back to the pavilion, and then still scoring runs is a big, big difference,” mentioned Gavaskar, throughout a dialogue on Sports activities Tak’s YouTube channel.
“In the nets, you could get out caught 20 times, but you can still bat for 20 or 40 minutes. You keep getting dismissed in the nets. That practice isn’t good because there’s no pressure to bat well or protect your wicket. In a match, that pressure is real. So what can happen and what should happen is if you don’t get runs, then, you know. To the net next door because every ground now does not have nets on the ground, but next to the ground there are nets, so you fail with the bat in a match, go into the nets and have that practice, get that rhythm going, but nothing like playing in a match. I’m very happy to see that Rohit Sharma has said that he is going to play in the Trophy,” he added.
