"Need To Chat With Certain Individuals": Rohit Sharma Makes Intentions Clear After India's Historic Loss vs NZ
NDTV
India vs New Zealand: Driving home the reality might be on top of his agenda now, but Rohit Sharma did not want to make a spectacle out of it.
India skipper Rohit Sharma says he won't "overreact" after the embarrassing series defeat against New Zealand but he underlined the necessity to have a "quiet chat with certain individuals" to discuss the way forward. India lost the second Test by 113 runs after failing in pursuit of a stiff 359-run target. This was India's first home series defeat in 12 years after conceding a four-match rubber against England 1-2 in 2012-13.
In the interim, India won 18 series at home on the trot.
"You don't need to overreact. But you need to have a quiet chat with certain individuals and let them know where they are at and what, as a team, we require from them," said Rohit in the post-match press meet.
Driving home the reality might be on top of his agenda now, but Rohit did not want to make a spectacle out of it.
"I don't think you need to make them sit in a team room on a one-on-one basis and go through their innings and tell them this is what you should be doing. I don't think this is the right forum to do that.
