After the defeat in the 3-match ODI series against Sri Lanka, captain Rohit Sharma said, "I don't think it is a matter of concern.

But this is something that we have to look at individually and as a game plan. It is a joke. There will never be complacency when you are playing for India. There is no chance of complacency when I am the captain. But you have to give credit to good cricket."

Players need to pay attention

Rohit Sharma further said that, “Sri Lanka played better than us. We saw the conditions and went with the combination. There are also people who need to be looked at and hence the changes have been made. Instead of positivity, there are many areas that we need to look at.

These things happen. Losing a series is not the end of the world. You will lose an odd series here and there but it is about how you come back after the defeat.”

From this statement of Rohit, it seems that he has given a kind of warning to some players. Which may include the names of Iyer, Siraj, Arshdeep, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant.

Nobody else except Rohit has a bat

The reason for Team India's defeat in the 3 match ODI series has been the team's batting. Because, apart from captain Rohit Sharma, no batsman has been able to perform well in this series.

Due to which the team has lost.

Rohit Sharma scored 147 runs in 3 matches in this series and during this he also scored half-centuries in 2 matches. But apart from him no other batsman was able to score runs. Rohit Sharma gave the team a fast start in all three matches. But the rest of the batsmen kept losing their wickets every time.
