The Real Reason Behind Dropping Him
Exclusion from the starting XI lineup does not indicate a lack of future playing plans from the management regarding Rohit. Rohit will replace Mumbai’s first team as an Impact Player because they have chosen to bowl first. Besides using him as an impact substitute the team tried to provide Rohit with recuperation time.
A Big Challenge Ahead for Rohit
The upcoming matches will start a new phase that presents significant difficulties to this ex-team captain. After an underperforming batting display Rohit faces a risk of being phased out from team planning by both the management and specifically by Hardik. The present situation indicates Rohit faces the real possibility of being phased out from the team by another cricketer.
