New Delhi: In today’s time, India’s limited overs captain Rohit Sharma is known as a great batsman. Strong bowlers are also seen battered in front of his batting. But, do you know that Rohit is also a great bowler? Yes, in the beginning of his career, he used to play cricket as a spinner. However, even at that time there were discussions about his batting. Rohit himself used to like bowling more. Now you must be thinking that why is there talk of Rohit’s bowling?
Rohit Sharma is better than him in bowling
Actually, Rohit Sharma’s bowling has a great record on the field of South Africa. Where India is currently facing a humiliating defeat. The performance of the Indian team that went on the tour of South Africa has been very poor. Where the first team lost the Test series, now Team India has also lost the ODI series. Rohit Sharma’s record is better than those bowlers who are full time bowlers of India. We are talking about Bhuvneshwar Kumar and R. of Ashwin. Yes, both these bowlers are considered to be the best bowlers for India, but both of them were flops in this tour.

such is the record
Let us tell you that Rohit Sharma has done a total of 14 overs on South African soil in One Day International cricket. Where he has been successful in taking 3 wickets. Whereas great spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar have been able to take only 2-2 wickets so far. In the current series, the figures of both these bowlers are very bad. Bhuvneshwar Kumar did not get a single wicket in the first two matches of ODI, while Ashwin has been able to take only one wicket in his account in two matches.
India has lost the series
In the three-match ODI series, India has lost the series by losing two matches. In both the matches of this series, R Ashwin took one wicket for 121 runs in 20 overs. Whereas Bhuvneshwar Kumar spent 131 runs in 18 overs and has not been able to take a single wicket. At the same time, bowlers are being considered as the main reason for losing the series. Because India did not expect such from experienced bowlers. Apart from this, in the last and third matches, India can take on the field with a different strategy, so that it can save its credibility and avoid a clean sweep. The last match is to be played on 23 January.
