Sanjay Bangar: Given some time, Rohit Sharma will prove his mettle in test cricket

With clouds looming over Rohit Sharma’s test career, Indian team’s batting coach, Sanjay Bangar, has come out in support for the talented batsman. Bangar has suggested Rohit- who made his Test debut in 2013, six years after his ODI debut- needed more time. “Some players do

take time to blossom. Best thing about Sri Lankan cricket is how they persisted with Marvan Atapattu and Kumar Sangakkara. Because, they (SLC) stuck with them for a long period, they served the country for long with great distinction. Patience has to be shown with (some) players as they are bound to deliver,” Bangar said

Just give him 10 more years in test cricket is what Bangar has urged the BCCI. He even supported his viewpoint with some facts. After 15 tests, Rohit averages 10.14 against South Africa, 17 against England, 28.83 against Australia and 33.66 against Sri Lanka. His batting average is higher than Umesh Yadav, Ishant Sharma and Stuart Binny after 15 tests. Bangar has urged the BCCI to ban articles and media communications for using the word ‘talented’ for Rohit Sharma as it adds to the already existing pressure on Rohit.

Rohit has applauded his coach for this kind gesture and promised that he will deliver the expected results in 8 to 9 years which is well below the 10 year deadline Bangar was talking about. He has been consulting Ashwin, Saha and Amit Mishra for some batting tips and honing his skills in this free time. He has promised that he will only play the lofted shot once he opens his account. Well , talent and hard work does pay in the long run. Let’s hope for the very best.
