T20 World Cup 2022: "Fitness is definitely becoming an issue now for him" - Twitterati at their wits end after Rohit Sharma's poor outing in the 2nd semi-final

Team India skipper Rohit Sharma had a woeful outing in the T20 World Cup 2022 semi-final encounter against England on Thursday, November 10, at the Adelaide Oval. The opening batter looked sluggish from the word go and could not quite get settled in before perishing in the ninth over.After being asked to bat first by Jos Buttler, Team India endured yet another poor powerplay. The Men in Blue lost KL Rahul in the second over to Chris Woakes, bringing Virat Kohli to the crease early once again.The skipper did not get his timing right as he attempted to make the most of the fielding restrictions in place. At one stage, he seemed to have found his rhythm with a couple of solid strokes, but the mistimed shots and dot deliveries soaked out the momentum,He tried to take on Chris Jordan with a wild slog in the penultimate ball of the ninth over of the innings. While the ball was arguably in the slot for the taking, he did not get the timing right by any means, leading the ball to head towards deep mid-wicket. Sam Curran, sprinting in from the deep, sealed the Indian skipper's fate by taking a composed catch.The Twitterati were disappointed with Rohit's performance and took to the social media platform to voice their frustration.

Following his departure, the onus was on the in-form pair of Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav to steer Team India's innings.The pair could not quite get going on the used surface with Adil Rashid bowling an air-tight spell, culminating in the vital wicket of Suryakumar, who scored 15 runs.At the time of writing, the Men in Blue are placed at 80-3 after 13 overs. England have spun a web on the Indian batters with the help of their spin duo of Adil Rashid and Liam Livingstone.Should Rohit Sharma reconsider his future in T20I cricket on account of his current poor form? Let us know what you think.
