'Pension in your hands, but not playing for India'

'Pension in your hands, but not playing for India'

 


“If the chairman of selectors believes in the future health of Indian cricket, he has the power to decide whether your career should end now, whether you get a few more matches, or another series.”

India may have lost the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, but the spotlight is firmly on Rohit Sharma and his decision to sit out the crucial Sydney Test, a game that could have given India a chance to level the series .

On Day 2 of the Sydney Test, Rohit addressed the rumors surrounding his future in a candid interview at Star Sports, in which he emphatically states that he is not retiring from Test cricket and has only stepped aside due to a series of poor performances.

However, former Indian batsman Sanjay Manjrekar believes that Rohit's public clarification might have had another motive.

Speaking on Star Sports, Manjrekar suggested that Rohit's interview was partly aimed at reclaiming the narrative as Coach Gautam Gambhir took credit for the brave decision to leave the captain out of the playing XI.

“Somehow I think Gambhir got all the credit for his brave call by leaving Rohit Sharma out. He wanted to set the record straight. Let's face it,” Manjrekar said.

Acknowledging his poor spot with the bat, Rohit said, “I couldn't have another out-of-form batsman in the XI, and that's why I opted out.”

“I'm not going anywhere anytime soon,” Rohit added. “There's no guarantee that there won't be any more runs in five or six months.”

'I loved that interview, especially the first bit where he explained his decision. But there were other emotions involved as well,” Manjrekar noted.

'One thing a lot of players say is: 'I will decide my future.' I have a problem with that,” Manjrekar said.

“You can decide your future in terms of retirement, but playing for India is not in your hands. That is the job of the chairman of the selectors.'

“If the chairman of selectors is strong and believes in the future health of Indian cricket, he has the power to decide whether your career should end now, whether you get a few more matches or one more series,” Manjrekar said .

“Your retirement is in your hands, but playing for India is not.”
