Rohit Sharma, my favorite whipping player. A "talented" Bombay player who is supposed to be next Tendulkar. Alright, let me get to the point. He is selected for T20 player and given his IPL heroics, he would be part of the playing XI also withstanding the fact he wont suffer a form loss.
His IPL record suggests following figures:
M 24
R 645
A 34
34 is the runs per game Rohit Sharma makes in IPL.
His Twenty 20 record reads following:
RG Sharma 2007-2009 39* 36 7 1004 101* 34.62 755 132.98 1 6 2 87 47
His ODI figures are well known.
Reproducing them:
ODIs 37 35 10 680 70* 27.20 939 72.41 0 4 51 5 16 0
27.20 is a 2+ rise in his previous average when i posted his record and asked for his removal. Well the rise is attributed to a 43* in NZ when he played cos Tendulkar was injured (abdomen).
Roy is bowled by Jadeja. RR seems favorite today.
Back to Sharma bhai.
In last year he has played 23 games made 384 runs @ 25.6 with 58 being the highest and only score above 50.
Contrast that to the IPL. He was successful in IPL - 1 and IPL - 2. But when it comes to play for India, he flops.
When he plays for India in T20I his record reads
107 runs in 8 games with 50* vs SA in Super Six as his highest. Besides that 57 runs in 7 games. Take out 30* against Pakistan in the final / league game of T20 world cup and his record then reads 27 in 6.
Not so good record for a man who is said to be talent powerhouse. If you got talent then you gotta find form and make runs in the INTERNATIONAL games. Not in the franchisee games.
His record proves that he is unfit to play for India. In England he made his debut against Scotland / SA in 2007 and scored a 50 in first game (if not wrong). Since then he has failed to deliver.
He should not be part of any game that India plays unless he goes back to the domestic fold and gets some first class runs under his belt. He and Raina rose almost same time to the Indian colors in 2008 tour to Australia when RD and SG were dumped on MS behest. Raina has gone pillar to post in strength. This lad fell prey to the usual distractors like fashion shows, ad shows and of course chicks.
We dont have DBV in selection panel anymore. So if this lad doesnt make up for his tardy numbers in T20 world cup, he wont find himself in the West Indies ODI series and the CT to follow next. There are plenty of replacements available. Mind you i say of 15 or 16 of the touring party. As long as Sachin is around in oDIs, this lad wont play unless somebody else looses form.
I rest my case. Compare his IPL figures to his India figures and you get the drift.
