Former cricketer Aakash Chopra gave a big statement, 'If Rohit Sharma is not retiring then keep himself out of Sydney Test'

Rohit Sharma Retirement: Rohit Sharma is going through a very bad form. He has scored runs at an average of just 10.93 in the last 15 innings. Not only this, but he has also been able to score only 31 runs in five of the last three Tests of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. This is why the demand for his retirement has started gaining momentum.

The captain of the Indian cricket team is always fighting, and whoever sees thinks that now Rohit Sharma is in the last phase of his Test career. He has been a failure many times before this, but the voices were never raised so loudly. In fact, ever since he took over the captaincy in the India vs Australia Border-Gavaskar Trophy, no match has been won by the Indian team. The biggest thing in this case is that Rohit Sharma has scored just 31 runs in the five innings of the last three Tests at an average of mere 6.20. Meanwhile, now former cricketer and commentator Aakash Chopra has given a big statement, saying that if Rohit Sharma is not retiring, then himself keep out of the Sydney Test for the team's sake.

Former cricketer Aakash Chopra said on his YouTube channel that no captain has ever done this and that he has kept himself out. Retirement is Rohit Sharma's personal decision, but his selection depends on the selectors. He does not want to take this decision in the middle of the tour, so now the decision is in Rohit Sharma's hands. In the interest of the team, will he sit out? Not asking for retirement, but to keep himself out of the Sydney Test. Tell the team, I am not able to bat well or am not able to contribute.

Aakash Chopra feels that captain Rohit Sharma has been selfish. He initially told everyone that KL Rahul would open, but in the India vs Australia fourth Test, he removed Rahul and dropped Shubman Gill. Why so? To come down as an opener again. Rohit put himself above his team.
