‘Rohit Sharma vulnerable’: Sunil Gavaskar explains Hitman’s issues, laments absence of SKY

Mumbai Indians opener Rohit Sharma was dismissed for a duck in the game against RR, the 17th time Hitman has gone for 0 in IPL

Former India opener Sunil Gavaskar explains the problem behind Rohit Sharma’s technique after the Hitman was dismissed for a golden duck. Trent Boult breathed fire in the opening over against MI, dismissing Rohit and Naman Dhir for ducks. RR went on to win the game comfortably by 6 wickets, cementing their spot at the top of the table.

Gavaskar dissects Rohit Sharma’s golden duck

Have a look at his release. This is Rohit’s wicket; it’s a scrambled seam. Rohit has been vulnerable to the ball that comes in to him so he is probably anticipating that when the ball holds its line, he just follows it and then this is the next one. Naman Dhir had no clue, absolute no clue, playing down the wrong line and the odd lbw,” Gavaskar said on Star Sports during the live telecast.

‘MI missing SKY’

“Mumbai Indians are definitely missing Suryakumar Yadav. Suryakumar bats at No.3, and he can counterattack so well but he is not available at the moment. MI will be hoping and praying that he is available very quickly because he can make a difference, he is a game-changer, Suryakumar,” Gavaskar added.
