New Delhi:
Rohit Sharma, who surprised everyone by retiring from Test cricket on Wednesday (
Rohit Sharma) In recent times, he has faced a lot of criticism from former cricketers, pundits and journalists. Especially, since becoming the captain of Team India, Rohit had to face many sharp questions in the press conference at regular intervals. And now in the last phase of career, Rohit has said that he has seen a big change in the way cricket is going on these days. Rohit has said that these days ‘Masala’ has dominated cricket. In an interview given to a journalist, Rohit said that the kind of commentary in India compared to countries like Australia is very disappointing.
Due to this big reason, Rohit decided to retire from Test cricket, these important things also went against
He said, ‘We see everything. Let’s talk to each other. Sometimes when we watch matches on TV, the things that commentators talk about is very different from the commentary you see in Australia. Rohit said, ‘In such a situation it is very disappointing and I am saying this with full honesty. It seems as if he wants to target a particular player and talk about him. This is very disappointing.
Rohit said, ‘There are a large number of people who love sports. He does not like ‘Masala’. They want to watch cricket. These days we put a lot of ‘masala’ in matches. There are also cricket lovers who want to know about the game. They want to understand why the player is going through special poor form. He does not want to hear private or personal things related to him. You cannot say anything only because you have the right to speak. Players need to be respected. Indian ODI captains say, ‘I have said on many forums earlier that whoever has been a part of the World Cups, they deserve a lot of respect. Winning 23 out of 24 matches is not a joke. Rohit also acknowledged that these days, instead of response to players ‘performance or poor performance, Edanda based criticism is being done’
He said, ‘This is correct and it has gone out of our hands. We did not perform well on many occasions. In such a situation, we should be criticized. it is no problem. We lost to New Zealand at home, we are entitled to criticism. But today agenda based criticism is being done. And this is not right.
