"Rohit Sharma's weakness is Cricket"- Twitter rips apart Indian captain for poor outing in Adelaide

Rohit Sharma's decision to move down the order in India's batting line-up for Adelaide Test didn't quite work out in his favour as the batter was dismissed for just 3 off 23 balls. Rohit batted out of his position at No. 6 in this innings but didn't look comfortable at the crease.

Australia fast bowler Scott Boland bowled a fuller length ball which nipped back to hit Rohit on the knee roll. The umpire had no hesitation in giving him lbw after having a brief look at it. Rohit consulted for a DRS with Rishabh Pant but decided to go against it.

Later, it showed three reds on ball-tracking as Rohit walked back to the pavilion. With this wicket, his poor run in Test cricket continued and he was slammed by the users on social media for another low score.

Rohit should retire from test cricket. He can’t bat more than 20 balls. He got whitewashed at home and didn’t cross 5 runs in 6 out of 10 Test innings. pic.twitter.com/KDvz9zv0U5

This might be the Rohit last test series as a player and as a test captain. Now he has three more tests matches to finish his career on high but by looking at his form it's looking tough at the moment. pic.twitter.com/yPowsJC75i

Rohit Sharma's poor Test form

Rohit Sharma has scored just 136 runs in his last 11 Test innings at a miserable average of 12.36. He has been going through a rough patch of form recently.

He scored 91 runs in three Tests against New Zealand at an average of 15.16. Rohit struggled against both pace and spin bowling throughout the series. His struggles continued in Adelaide as well. He will be looking to turn around his form in the remaining innings of the ongoing series.
