Sharduul dice: “Hay una gran protección cuando los jugadores altos están cerca y tienen una buena mezcla de jugadores de alta calidad que ofrecen frutos claros.
Team India’s pace all-rounder Shardul Thakur has said that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma retired from the Test format as they knew that they won’t be able to contribute to the team. The statement comes days after Shardul was picked for the India tour of England starting next month.
Such decisions are personal: Shardul on Ro-Ko retirement
“They are the most senior figures in the game, but such decisions are personal. It comes when they feel they can’t contribute or drive the format as before,” Thakur said as quoted by IndiaToday.
“There is a great deal of protection when senior players are around, and having a good mix of senior and junior players in the team provides flourishing results,” he added.
Shardul also opened up on the role of Jadeja in the team since the veteran Rohit and Virat duo have already retired. “Jaddu is now the most experienced. This tour will test everyone, with new responsibilities, including leadership roles.” It’s a fresh challenge, but we have the talent. Young players must seize this opportunity to build their own legacy,” Shardul said.
