Rohit Sharma, the famed batsman, has not been able to perform well in the IPL 2023 tournament so far. He has been dismissed for a duck twice, and his batting average is less than 20, with a strike rate below 130. These numbers are disappointing for Rohit Sharma's fans who expect better from him.

While Rohit Sharma's performance in IPL 2023 may be disappointing, it is actually good news for the Indian cricket team. This is because Rohit Sharma's track record of performing well in international cricket, particularly in ICC tournaments, remains strong despite his current form in the IPL. Therefore, the Indian team can still count on Rohit Sharma to deliver in crucial international matches, regardless of his recent IPL performances.

Following the IPL 2023, Team India is looking forward to playing the World Test Championship final against Australia starting on June 7 at the Oval ground in London. While Rohit Sharma's performance in the IPL has been lackluster, his fans are hoping that he will score runs in the WTC Final match. Despite his recent failures in the IPL, Rohit Sharma has a proven track record of performing well in ICC tournaments, and his fans are eagerly anticipating another stellar performance from him on the big stage.

Rohit Sharma's performance in the last five seasons of IPL has been subpar, but his international cricket record remains impressive. For instance, in IPL 2017, Rohit Sharma only managed to score 333 runs at an average of 23.78. However, he bounced back in the ICC Champions Trophy that followed, where he dominated with the bat, scoring 304 runs in 5 matches at an average of 76. During this period, Rohit Sharma hit one century and two half-centuries, showcasing his ability to perform at the highest level.

Rohit Sharma had a poor IPL season in 2019, scoring only 405 runs in 15 matches at an average of 28.92 with a strike rate of less than 130. However, he made a strong comeback in the World Cup that followed, scoring a whopping 648 runs on the back of five centuries. Rohit's average during the tournament was an impressive 81, demonstrating his ability to perform at the highest level of international cricket.

Despite another lackluster IPL performance in 2021 where Rohit Sharma's average was once again below 30 and his strike rate remained below 130, he excelled in the T20 World Cup later that year. Rohit emerged as the second-highest run-scorer for India in the tournament, amassing 174 runs at an average of 34.79 with a strike rate of over 150. These impressive numbers highlight Rohit Sharma's ability to elevate his game on the international stage, even if his IPL form is not up to par.

In three out of the last four years, there has been a pattern of success that we hope will continue. Unfortunately, the current season of the IPL has not been favourable for Rohit Sharma. Therefore, it's uncertain how he will perform in the upcoming World Test Championship final.
