Ravichandran Ashwin has voiced his support for the continued selection of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli on the Indian national cricket team. He cited their accomplishments and strong fan base as justification, contrasting the public support they receive with that given to bowlers.
Ashwin’s comments come after recent scrutiny surrounding both players, particularly regarding potential retirement. Rohit Sharma recently addressed these speculations by scoring a century against England, demonstrating his continued skill and commitment. The captain acknowledged that external criticism is a consistent element of his career.
According to Ashwin, “Virat Kohli aur Rohit Sharma ko touch nahi kar payenge,” which translates to ‘no one will be able to match Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.’ He emphasized the significance of their past achievements in bolstering their positions on the team. Ashwin also pointed out a disparity in public perception, noting that bowlers generally do not receive the same level of unwavering support as batsmen like Kohli and Sharma.
The Indian cricketers have faced pressure from fans and media alike, but continue to perform at a high level despite it.
