Rohit Sharma latest news
Rohit Sharma has been putting in extra yards during his injury recovery in NCA, Bangalore to cut down his upper body weight making him lighter than before. Rohit suffered from a lot of injuries last year and his body weight neither helped him to stay fit. The effort he has put in now in NCA will surely take care of his fitness in the future as he looks fitter than ever in his latest Instagram post.
His injury is being tracked and his availability for the test series in Australia will be reassessed by December 11. As of now, he has been ruled out of the first two tests along with India’s premier fast bowler Ishant Sharma. If they are available for the last two tests, then the protocols of the lockdown have to be slightly altered to make them ready to play before the third test starts.
Ishant Sharma went to New Zealand last year with a similar injury concern and had to be withdrawn after the first test. Hence his recovery will not be considered as Indian management does not want to risk him like the New Zealand tour. India will also miss the services of captain Virat Kohli who will return to India after the first test at Adelaide on account of his child birth and Ajinkya Rahane will be taking up the leadership responsibilites.
Rohit keen to become leaner
Rohit Sharma has put his weight on becoming leaner to prolong his excellent career in the cricket field. He has always been an injury prone player and his workload had to be managed properly. His intention to become leaner will be a key factor for India’s success in the future as he is a world class opener in all formats. 2021 has a lot of cricket coming up and Rohit is very keen not to pick up any injuries in the coming years and stay fit.
A BCCI source stated”Rohit doesn’t want to take any chance this time. He is very conscious about the fitness standards. He has been plagued by injuries in the last year. Then the lockdown happened before he got on with his IPL duties. He has been on the road for two years too. That didn’t really give him much of a chance to work on his fitness. Now, he wants to ensure he is in perfect shape and his body is ready to endure the rigours of non-stop cricket next year“
