'Bhot ache yhi umeed thi' - Rohit Sharma under fire for another failure in the 20-20 World Cup 2022

Indian team is currently in action against the English team in the second semi-final of the 20-20 World Cup 2022. The three lions’ skipper Jos Buttler has decided to bowl first after winning the toss. Batting first, India has faced some early and major blows including the likes of KL Rahul, skipper Rohit Sharma, and in-form batter Suryakumar Yadav.

After enduring a poor run throughout the tournament so far, Rohit Sharma was expected to deliver up to his stature. But unfortunately, the Indian skipper could add only 27 runs with his bat off 28 balls with a slow strike rate of 96.42 and four boundaries on his credit.

Some of the Indian cricket fans who were already unhappy over Rohit’s poor performance in the tournament found another chance to go hard while criticizing the 35-year-old for his poor outing in a must-win knockout match of the tournament against England. Fans took to Twitter to come up with some hard critique remarks for the veteran of three ODI double-centuries.

Here's how fans reacted to Rohit Sharma’s sluggish approach in the semi-final against England:
