Simon Katich praised Bumrah
‘Around the wicket’ During a conversation on the podcast, Simon Katich praised Bumrah’s captaincy. He said, “When you compare the results of the Perth Test and Adelaide Test, it is clear that Rohit Sharma missed the mark in Perth. Bumrah captained brilliantly in Perth and used the bowlers properly.”
Katich, referring specifically to the first day of the Perth Test, said, “When Australia’s score was 7/67, the Indian bowlers attacked the stumps. He bowled fuller and straight length, which was quite effective. Bumrah cleverly rotated his bowlers and implemented the strategy correctly.”
Questions on Rohit’s captaincy in Adelaide
Simon Katich raised questions on Rohit Sharma’s captaincy in the Adelaide Test. He said, “Rohit needed to be a little more active with his fast bowlers. On the first day of the Adelaide Test, the Indian bowlers bowled many wide and short balls, which were at the 7-8 meter mark. This made it easier for the Australian batsmen to play.”
Katich further said, “Rohit Sharma was fielding at first slip and he saw all this. In such a situation, he should have given precise instructions to his bowlers at the right time. Australia came out of trouble losing only one wicket in that session and eventually won the Test match.”
Rohit needs strategic activism
Simon Katich believes that Rohit Sharma needs to be more active in his strategy on the field. As captain, he will have to make better use of his bowlers according to the pitch and conditions. Especially when the pitch is favorable, it is the responsibility of the captain to make the bowlers bowl the right length and direction.
