Definitely, Rohit Sharma He has been one of the best batsmen in modern cricket. However, it has been a disappointing year for the Indian captain with the bat. Be it Tests or ODIs, Rohit has failed to fulfill his potential or perform to his high standards this year. His performances this year beg the question: is this the end of Rohit in international cricket?
A dead end for Rohit Sharma in Test Cricket
The Indian captain is the most disappointing in Test cricket. His stats reveal that Rohit is not only past his prime, but he can’t even keep up with the pace and intensity of the game at this point in his career. Rohit has played a total of 14 test matches this year and scored 619 runs with a meager average of 24.76. An indication of Rohit’s sorry state of affairs from the bat comes from the fact that the Indian cricket hitman scored his last Test century in March this year against England in Dharamsala. His performance overseas in Test cricket has been even more disappointing this year. Rohit could not perform with his team in South Africa at the beginning of the year and has been miserable with the bat on the course Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 until now.

A steady decline for Indian skipper in ODIs
The 37-year-old has had a stellar career in limited overs cricket so far. Rohit has scored a total of 10,866 runs in 265 ODI matches so far. But in recent years, his batting average has been on the decline. Rohit, the only international cricketer to have scored a double century three times in his career, had a batting average of 70s at the peak of his prowess. However, in the 2024 season it has dropped to 56.50. This may be a dream for certain batsmen, but it is a sign that the peak for the Indian captain has certainly come to an end. In the 2024 season, Rohit had scored a total of 678 runs in 12 matches. Rohit’s last ODI century came on 12 October 2023 during the World Cup match against Afghanistan.
A happy ending to Rohit’s T20I career
The only happy spectacle for 2024 in Rohit’s career came in the shortest format of the game. Rohit led the team to T20 World Cup glory and also had a stellar T20I season with the bat. Rohit played 11 T20I matches in 2024 and scored a total of 378 races including his career-best score of 121 races against Afghanistan. Furthermore, Rohit also played some impeccable knocks during the T20 world cup including an unbeaten 52 runs against Ireland and 92 against Australia.
