India captain Rohit Sharma is in no mood to change his batting approach after repeated failures in recent times, categorically stating “I won’t change my game, I will play like this only.” The Indian opener has been under severe criticism over his lack of form for in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL).
Rohit’s lean patch with the bat started last year in the Test series against New Zealand which continued in the Australian tour. He returned to form with a hundred against England in the ODI series earlier this year, before leading the Men in Blue to Champions Trophy triumph.
However, his slump in form once against came to fore in IPL 2025 with just 82 runs in his first six matches for Mumbai Indians. Taking about the same, the five-time IPL-winning captain explained there’s always a disappointment when one doesn’t score runs but it won’t make him change his approach.
“There is always a disappointment when you don’t make runs. But the plan that I make before going onto the field and the way I want to play, I don’t want to lose my game (playing approach),” Rohit said in an interview with journalist Vimal Kumar on the latter’s YouTube channel.
