'What is the use of playing such people in Tests…' Rohit Sharma took a dig at which player?

Rohit Sharma, IND vs ENG 4th Test : After defeating England by 5 wickets in the fourth match of the 5-match Test series between India and England, Indian team captain Rohit Sharma gave a big statement in the press conference. Praising young players like Yashasvi, Dhruv Jurel, Sarfaraz and Rajat Patidar, Rohit Sharma said, 'Players who dream of making a place in the national team without any effort should understand that only those who are 'hungry for success' Only players will be able to make a place in this format. ,

Rohit took a jibe at Kishan and Iyer!

After winning the fourth Test against England, Rohit praised emerging players like Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Akash Deep. Rohit looked very happy with the participation of these young players. Rohit said in the press conference after the match, “We will give opportunity only to those players who are hungry for success. There's no point playing with them if they're not hungry.” This statement of Rohit is being considered as a taunt for players like Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer who are away from domestic cricket.

Ishan and Iyer disobeyed BCCI's order

Rohit's statement comes after BCCI ordered players like Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer to play in Ranji Trophy matches, but both of them ignored it. Rohit said, “I have not seen any player in the team who is not hungry for success. The people who are here and the people who are not there all want to play. But you get very few opportunities in Test cricket. If you don’t take advantage of it, it will go away.”

Test is the toughest format – Rohit Sharma

Ishan Kishan did not play for his state Jharkhand in the Ranji Trophy but was seen training with his Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya in Baroda ahead of next month's IPL. Asked if the lucrative league is affecting the desire to play Test cricket among young players, Rohit said, “Test cricket is the toughest format. If you want to excel and achieve success in this format, you have to show passion for it.
