Delhi: Rohit Sharma’s poor form in IPL 2025 remains the subject of discussion. Virender Sehwag and Manoj Tiwari have expressed concern over the constant batting of former Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma. Sehwag believes that it would not be right to expect big innings from Rohit now.
Rohit Sharma’s performance in IPL
Rohit Sharma has been known for his brilliant batting for the last several years. He has made Mumbai Indians a five -time champion, but his performance was not always stable.
He has been able to score only 8 runs in the two matches played so far in IPL 2025. Mohammad Siraj dismissed him for just 4 runs against Gujarat Titans. Earlier, his performance in IPL 2024 was not special. Although he had scored a century, but the rest of the season had failed to play big innings.
Manoj Tiwari compared to Virat
Former cricketer Manoj Tiwari said that even though Rohit Sharma is counted among the veterans of Indian cricket, he never played a big season with 600-700 runs in the IPL. Tiwari also compared him to Virat Kohli.
He said, “Rohit Sharma’s talent should not be limited to 400 runs. He scored 400 runs last season and scored a century, but where is the 800-900-run season? Virat Kohli scored so much every time, so why not Rohit?”
Virender Sehwag’s big statement
Virender Sehwag also expressed his opinion on this issue and said that it is not right to expect a 600-700-run season at this turn of Rohit Sharma’s career. Sehwag said, “Manoj Tiwari rightly said, it has been 18 years, but Rohit has never played a 600-700-run season. When this has not happened in so many years, it would be wrong to expect it in the last phase of career.”
Will Rohit Sharma be able to make a comeback?
Looking at Rohit Sharma’s IPL career, he has scored more than 400 runs only eight times so far. His best season was in 2013, when he scored 538 runs and became Mumbai Indians Champion. His performance in the last five IPL season has not been very special.
- 2020: 332 runs
- 2021: 381 runs
- 2022: 268 runs
- 2023: 332 runs
- 2024: 417 runs (including a century)
His form has been very poor in IPL 2025 so far. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see if he is able to get rhythm in the upcoming matches or not.
