“We Need Runs From Rohit Sharma”- Mohammad Kaif

Indian Cricket Team lost a nerve-wracking 1st ODI against Bangladesh where they weren’t able to seize the key moments of the run chase. Skipper Rohit Sharma would be disappointed with his performance as he scored 27 runs in 31 balls but couldn’t make the most of the start.

Bangladesh would be high on confidence as this victory would keep them in good stead. The Bangladeshi Tigers made a statement to the Indian Cricket Team that they are here to dominate. Skipper Litton Das was spot on with his captaincy as he rotated the bowlers quite smartly.

Mohammad Kaif On Rohit Sharma

Mohammad Kaif was having an interaction with Sony Sports and was asked about Rohit Sharma. “You have to bat well. We are talking a lot about the bowling, they batted badly. We lost the match because of batting. We need runs from Virat Kohli. We need runs from Rohit Sharma the captain. Rohit Sharma has not been in form as a captain, he has not been able to score regularly.” said Mohammad Kaif.

“If they make changes, there will be commotion. If you played any young player, Kuldeep Sen should play all three matches. If you have backed someone and you change that decision because you lost the match, I believe you are not a good captain or coach.” he added.

Great Chance for Bangladesh

The Bangladeshi Tigers would sense that they can seal the Series in the 2nd ODI on 07th December (Wednesday). Bangladesh would hope that the senior batters: Shakib, Rahim & Mahmudullah play according to their credentials as India would come well prepared.

India will have to be smart against the spinners as once again Litton will introduce Shakib & Mehidy in the power-play overs. Skipper Rohit Sharma may come out all guns blazing as the batter needs to lead-or-diem from the front in a do or die match.
