Rohit Sharma’s struggles with the bat in T20 cricket are concerning for the Mumbai Indians, who have been struggling to win matches since their 2020 triumph and finished last in the previous edition of the Indian Premier League. Even in the first match of this season, Mumbai suffered a loss to the Royal Challengers Bangalore, with only Tilak Varma putting up a fight. While Mumbai has a history of starting slowly, their current form is not helping matters, and it is reflecting on Sharma’s performance. However, the team’s fortunes could turn around quickly if the captain regains his form. While a team can win without their captain’s contributions, it is always helpful when the skipper leads from the front, boosting the morale of the team.

However, Sharma has been scoring runs in international games, including a century against Australia in Nagpur in February. Although he may not be as dominant in white-ball cricket as he has been in previous years, it is important to remember that he is a player with two double centuries in One-Day Internationals. Unfortunately, Sharma’s trademark shots, such as his front foot square-cut and pulling fast bowlers over square-leg, have become rare occurrences, and he has only scored one half-century in his last 28 innings. If he can find his touch, Mumbai’s fortunes could turn around quickly.
