Speaking on the YouTube channel Khelneeti, Rajkumar Sharma suggested that Rohit Sharma should avoid getting angry at his teammates in this fashion. He wants the Indian skipper to remain calm when a player makes a mistake.
Several instances of Rohit getting angry on the field during the recently concluded series against West Indies caught the attention of many fans.
He looked visibly frustrated after Bhuvneshwar Kumar dropped a catch off his own bowling at a critical juncture during the second T20I.
The 34-year-old was also left fuming in the final fixture of the series after wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan missed a run-out chance.
“It’s good to see Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli working together” - Rajkumar Sharma
Rajkumar Sharma added that he was pleased to see Rohit and Kohli working together. He mentioned how ex-India captain MS Dhoni also assisted Kohli after the latter took over the captaincy reins from him.
He highlighted how Dhoni would often step in to manage things during death overs, with Kohli stationed at long-on.
The Indian team will lock horns with Sri Lanka in three T20Is and two Test matches at home from February 24 to March 16. It is worth noting that Kohli has been rested for the T20I series.
