Ravichandran Ashwin Big Statement on Rohit Sharma Form: Former veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin said that this is a ‘difficult time’ for Rohit Sharma, who is in bad rhythm and the Indian captain will have to try to silence the critics by performing strongly with his bat before the upcoming Champions Trophy. Rohit had taken himself out of the team from the last Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia due to poor rhythm. A month later, he returned to international cricket and scored just two runs in Nagpur ODI against England.

Ashwin said on his YouTube channel, ‘This is not easy. If you look at it from Rohit’s perspective, it is obviously disappointing for him. He wants to focus on the series. He understands that he has done well in this format and he would like it well. This former off -spinner said, ‘But people will ask questions. Those who watch cricket will obviously ask. This is a difficult time. You cannot stop these questions. How long will you stop? It will continue until he performs.

Rohit has scored just 166 runs in all the formats in all formats. He said, ‘As a cricketer, I understand what round Rohit is going through. This is not easy. I pray to perform well and score a century in this series.

India won the first ODI against England by four wickets in Nagpur on Thursday. The second ODI will be played in Cuttack on Sunday. Meanwhile, Ashwin praised Ravindra Jadeja fiercely and insisted that this all -rounder is more talented than him. Jadeja, after taking three wickets for 26 runs in his nine overs, first ODIs, chased the target, scoring 12 runs in 10 balls.

He said, ‘When our media performs well, then it fails to appreciate him. Whenever we lose, everyone becomes a villain. He dismissed Joe Root. Jadeja remains relevant in every aspect of the game.

He said, ‘He is a good bowler, batting under pressure and is a wonderful fielder. Jadeja is more impressive than me. During the fielder, he can run from one end of the entire ground to the other even at this age.
