    'A Fallen Lighthouse Is More Dangerous Than A Reef': Sidhu On Rohit's Exclusion

    By IANS News January 03, 2025 • 15:30 PM View: 1186
    Navjot Singh Sidhu: Former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has criticised the Indian team management's decision to exclude skipper Rohit Sharma from the pivotal fifth Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).

    Rohit "opted" to rest for the match and pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah stepped in as captain for the Sydney Test. He had previously led India to a win in the opening Test in Perth.

    Sidhu believes captain should never be dropped midstream nor given the option to opt out— as it sends wrong signals. Drawing comparisons to past captains like Mark Taylor and Mohammad Azharuddin, who were retained despite poor form, Sidhu argued that Rohit deserved similar treatment.
