ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022: 3 Reasons Why Rohit Sharma Is Destined To Fail In The World Cup

Rohit Sharma is set to lead India in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. India is set to begin their journey on October 23, when they face Pakistan in its opening match. India is part of Group 2 in the tournament along with teams like Pakistan, South Africa, and Bangladesh in their pool.

Rohit Sharma will lead India for the first time in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022. India has not won any ICC tournament since 2013; when they won the Champions Trophy under skipper MS Dhoni. Rohit Sharma has an opportunity to showcase his captainship skills in the tournament. Here we talk about 3 reasons why Rohit Sharma is destined to fail in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.

ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022: 3 Reasons Why Rohit Sharma Is Destined To Fail In The World Cup

Poor Average This Year

If we consider Rohit Sharma’s batting performance in the last three years, he has the poorest average in 2022. This year, the right-handed batsman has scored 540 runs in 23 games at an average of 25.71.

In comparison, he had a batting average of 38.54 and 46.66 in 2021 and 2020 respectively. Batting at a similar average of 25+ during ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022 will be considered a poor batting show.

Pressure of Captainship

Rohit Sharma was quite a free man until last year’s T20 World Cup; when he was not the captain of the team. He took over the T20I captaincy last year. Later, he was also picked as the ODI and Test skipper replacing Virat Kohli.

Leading a side in all three games is not an easy task. Many international teams follow split captaincy to manage the captainship load among players. However, Rohit Sharma is the skipper of the Indian team in all three formats currently. Due to captainship pressure, his performance can be affected during ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.

Fitness Issues

Rohit Sharma is definitely one of the most powerful batsmen in international cricket currently. However, he is not among the fittest. Rohit Sharma has faced fitness issues and injuries many times this year.

He has also missed many series due to his fitness issues. If he gets injured or faces fitness issues during ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, then he will not be able to give his best performance in the tournament.
