Rohit Sharma creates unwanted batting record in IPL | Cricket News – Times of India
Rohit owns a plethora of records be it in international cricket or IPL but this time he found himself on the wrong side as he became the player with the most ducks in the history of the Indian Premier League.
This was Rohit’s 16th duck in IPL, the most by any player in the league’s history. West Indies all-rounder Sunil Narine, Indian batters Dinesh Karthik and Mandeep Singh have 15 ducks each.
In the match, Rohit did not open the innings. He batted at number three while it was Ishan Kishan and Australian all-rounder Cameron Green who opened the innings. This change in batting position did not do anything good for the skipper as his struggles in the current season continued with a three-ball duck. He was dismissed by Deepak Chahar, with the assistance of safe hands of Ravindra Jadeja.
This season has not been a good one for the MI skipper. In 10 matches, he has managed only 184 runs at an average of 18.40 and a strike rate of 129.58. He has scored only one half-century in the tournament, with the best score of 65.
