Rohit Sharma's struggles with the bat continue in IPL 2025
In the match against the SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH), Rohit Sharma once again failed to capitalize on a promising start, getting dismissed for 26 off 16 balls, which included three sixes.
The seasoned opener has struggled to find form in the ongoing IPL 2025 season, scoring just 82 runs in six innings at a modest average of 13.66, with 26 being his highest score so far.While the Mumbai Indians (MI) seem to have found their rhythm, winning their last two matches, both fans and the team management will hope for Rohit to rediscover his form and make a meaningful impact in the remainder of the season.
