Morkel Backs Rohit Ahead of Lord's ODI Decider
India bowling coach Morne Morkel backs Rohit Sharma to regain form ahead of the series-deciding ODI at Lord's.
London, July 18 (IANS) India bowling coach Morne Morkel has thrown his weight behind Rohit Sharma ahead of the series-deciding third and final ODI against England at Lord's, expressing complete faith in the veteran opener's ability to overcome his lean patch and insisting there are "no worries or concerns" over his form.
Rohit has endured a difficult run with the bat in the ongoing ODI series, managing modest scores in the first two matches. His struggles sparked speculation over his ODI future.
However, BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia on Friday dismissed reports that Sunday's match could be Rohit's final ODI, reiterating that the veteran opener remains a key part of India's plans and that there has been no discussion over his retirement from the format.
