Former India cricketer Ravi Shastri has backed out-of-form Mumbai Indians' (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma to do well in a must-win game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and said that fellow Mumbaikar does not need any motivation to come out of his lean patch.
Speaking on Star Sports Studio, Ravi Shastri said, "Rohit doesn't need any motivation. It is Rohit's bad luck that runs are not coming out of his bat and he is getting out after playing two or three balls. But once runs start flowing out of his bat then it will be difficult to stop him. This is a different guy."
MI skipper's this year IPL has not been ideal as he has so far scored only 257 runs in 13 matches with an average of 19.77. He has been able to make just one fifties in the season so far. After witnessing 68 highly entertaining and tightly contested games and several nail-biting finishes, we have finally arrived on the last day of the league stage of IPL 2023, and yet the four finalists haven't been confirmed, such has been the level of competition in the Toughest T20.
