India skipper Rohit Sharma is currently rested for the five-match T20I series against the West Indies. Since January this year, Sharma, alongside Virat Kohli, both players are yet to play T20I cricket. Once again, ahead of the ongoing T20I series, they have been rested. Meanwhile, Sharma was spotted in the United States. He was surrounded by the fans and one of them recorded the video.
It has been going viral since then. Fans have offered two cents on the video.
No craze. All paid promo..

Rohit Sharma hasn't delivered in knockout games: Salman Butt
Former Pakistan skipper Salman Butt has recently said that Sharma is yet to deliver in knockout games. Notably, the latter scored a hundred against Bangladesh in the 2015 ODI World Cup quarterfinal and scored a cameo against Pakistan in T20 World Cup 2007. Apart from that, there are no other innings of note in World Event knockouts.
โHe is not a bench strength level anymore. Heโs more than that. Secondly, I accept that Rohit is a big player, but some players are there who have been around for a long time but when pressure gets to them, they canโt deliver. Especially at the knock-out stages, this is something that has to be worked on,โ Butt further said on his YouTube channel.
Apart from this, Butt spoke about the experiment around Ishan Kishan. The former said that Kishan needs to accept that he will be second-choice opener for India.
โI absolutely agree (that Indiaโs experiment with Ishan was confusing). One guy being dropped after scoring 200โฆ whatโs the point? Either they accept the fact that he is second option, even if he scores 1000 runs in a single innings. That never gives you the feeling of being the best, that never gives you the feeling that you will be rewarded for your performances. Currently, the feeling is no matter what you do, you will be the second option,โ the former Pakistan skipper added.
