IPL 2018: Worst players from each team

#5 Rohit Sharma (Mumbai Indians)

The hitman had to work hard for his runs

Mumbai Indians were carried by the young shoulders of Ishan Kishan, Mayank Markhande, Suryakumar Yadav and the Pandya brothers. The senior boys didn't rise to the occasion for the most part, and Rohit Sharma is one of them undoubtedly.

The elegant batsman registered just a couple of half-centuries this term, his highest score being 94. If those two innings are discounted, then he plotted poor scores of 15, 11, 18, 2, 24, 11, 36, 6, along with a couple of first-ball dismissals.

Every time he went out to the middle in search of a long innings, a loose shot proved to be his nemesis. Considering the standards he sets every season, it is safe to say that the captain did not lead by example.
