“Rohit Sharma slammed as ‘selfish’ amid Virat Kohli hypocrisy uproar after MI star’s IPL 2024 century fails to clinch victory.”

Rohit Sharma’s century, akin to Virat Kohli’s much-criticized 67-ball ton against Rajasthan Royals, drew comparisons. Interestingly, both came in losing causes. Despite the win, Rohit’s stellar performance sparked debates, with some drawing parallels to Kohli’s previous innings.

“Rohit Sharma’s Resilience Dimmed by CSK’s Bowling Brilliance”

Amidst Rohit Sharma‘s strong innings at 75 off 45, Tilak Varma provided crucial support after Pathirana dismissed Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav in quick succession. Together, they forged a partnership of 60 runs, positioning Mumbai as favorites to chase down the remaining 83 runs in the last seven overs. However, CSK’s pacers, spearheaded by Pathirana, executed their strategies flawlessly, exploiting the expansive boundaries. Ultimately, Mumbai fell short by 20 runs in the chase.

Rohit ultimately reached a century, taking 61 balls to achieve it, marking his second in the IPL and eighth in his illustrious T20 career, culminating in an unbeaten 105. However, between overs 13 and 18, his scoring rate slowed significantly, as he could only manage a run-a-ball 14 during that period.

“Despite the courageous effort from Rohit at the Wankhede, fans on social media seemed rather unimpressed with his knock. He was called “selfish” on X, formerly known as Twitter, as Virat Kohli hypocrisy was called out with fans comparing Rohit’s ton to the former RCB captain’s much-criticised 67-ball century against Rajasthan Royals. Incidentally, both were scored in a losing cause.”

Here are some of the reactions on X:

73(42) to 86*(55)

That is basically 13(13) when MI needed 16 an over. No I am not hating Rohit Sharma here but imagine the analysis that would have took place if Kohli was the one who was batting. They could have called him selfish and what not
