Glenn McGrath gives his verdict on Rohit Sharma's recent form, names two young India pacers he is 'proud of'

Glenn McGrath heaps praise on one Indian batsman and two Indian bowlers at the verge of completing 10 years at the MRF foundation. Firstly, the batsman he spoke about was none other than the skipper of the Indian team, Rohit Sharma, calling him a class player and who everybody wants to do well. He said,

It is good news. He is a class player. You want him doing well. You want to see the senior players do well. You saw Shubman Gill get a good score the other day in the West Indies. The batsmen are doing their job in the West Indies,

Rohit, who was sitting at target just after his non-performance in the IPL, made a good comeback which was quite evident from his innings against England. Even though it was not as expected like we all usually expect from, his 76 at the oval against England and 64 against the West Indies was quite a point of notice.

Why is his comeback to form important?

Because, as we all know, the Asia Cup as well as the T20 world cup is on the verge of starting off, the two Indian team batsmen with the likes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were not in form at all since Rohit made his comeback recently, and Kohli is yet to. Kohli’s form is equally important for the Indian team because if he doesn’t, it can have a deep impact on the game play of the team

See, we should understand one thing, a team is formed of 10 players and every player has part to play. Some players have crucial parts whereas some do have minimal, but yes, participation and involvement are there. So, in this case, Rohit and Virat come in the first set of category and just think what would take place if one of the engines of a plane fails, the load upon the remaining one can become unbearable.

Coming back to the point, Virat too has to make a comeback. The former Australian player McGrath, also pointed out two of his favorite bowlers from the Indian team naming Avesh Khan and Prasidh Krishna, and saying that he’s really proud of them. He said,

To see 29 of our boys and ex-boys playing in the recent IPL was a proud moment. Prasidh and Avesh representing India in limited overs cricket, I am really proud of them…proud of all the boys,
