Rohit Sharma: The Indian team was on a tour to Sri Lanka recently. The three-match ODI series being played between the two teams has ended. The team led by Rohit Sharma lost this series 2-0. After this defeat, the entire team including coach Gautam Gambhir is being criticized a lot.

However, Rohit and Gambhir are the ones most responsible for Team India's poor performance. They kept a 22-year-old promising bowler on the bench throughout the series, who has the ability to destroy the Sri Lankan team's batting order single-handedly. Let us know in detail in this article who that player is.

Rohit Sharma did injustice to this player

Harshit Rana got a place in the squad in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. This pacer performed brilliantly for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024. Keeping this in mind, the selectors gave the 22-year-old a chance in the Indian national team.

However, this Delhi cricketer was not given a chance to play even a single match by captain Rohit Sharma. In the first two matches, Arshdeep Singh and Mohammad Siraj were played as two fast bowlers. In the last ODI, Riyan Parag was selected in place of Arshdeep. Harshit remained on the bench. This decision of the captain and coach was trolled a lot on social media.

Could not make debut even on Zimbabwe tour

Harshit Rana was earlier included in the 15-member squad for the first two matches of the 5-match T20 series played against Zimbabwe. It seemed that based on his IPL performance, he would easily make his debut. This did not happen and Harshit is currently looking for an opportunity to debut.

Let us tell you that this right-handed bowler took a total of 19 wickets in 13 matches during the 18th edition of the Indian Premier League. During this, his average was 20.16.
