Former Indian cricketer Suresh Raina has backed Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma to come out good in the remainder of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. He said that the right-hander is leading the team well but he needs to raise his game.

Mumbai Indians skipper (MI) Rohit Sharma is having a horrific time in the IPL 2023. The right-hander has struggled to score runs and hasn’t looked himself. His attacking approach has backfired as he has bagged a series of low scores.

Rohit Sharma literally has gifted his wicket to the opposition and has managed just one half-century this season. He has gotten out for low scores while trying to take the attack to the bowlers.

Rohit’s poor form has been the main reason behind MI’s lack of runs in the top order. He bagged two ducks in the last two games and overall in 11 games he has scored just 184 runs at a poor average of 18.40 and a strike rate of 126.90.

Suresh Raina feels that Rohit Sharma needs to raise his game. He said that the batter will be back to form soon and is just one of two games away from regaining it. Speaking to the Times of India, he said:

“Rohit needs to raise his game now. He needs to start believing in himself. He will come back to form very soon. Class is permanent. He just needs a game or two to come back to form.”

Mumbai Indians (MI) are currently 8th on the points table and a win against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will take them to 3rd on the points table. They have 5 wins from 11 games with 10 points.

Suresh Raina feels that Rohit Sharma is leading the team very well but he’s missing the death bowler. While calling him a class player, he said:

“He is leading the team really well. He is missing a death overs bowler in his team. He must be missing Bumrah right now. He has not been able to perform with the bat recently, but he is a class player. If Mumbai Indians win against RCB, they will be in the top four.”

Mumbai Indians (MI) will now lock horns with Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on Tuesday (9th May).
