Rohit Sharma the right-handed Indian batsmen has been having a really tough tour to South Africa so far.
Across his eight innings on the tour so far in the two tests and four ODIs, the highest score Rohit has got is 47 in the 2nd innings of the test in Centurion either side of which Rohit has not reached 20 once in all other efforts.
Twitter has been having their real dig at the Mumbai batsmen for this big lull, many have termed Rohit as a flat track bully for failing to adjust to Southafrica bounce & pace conditions.
But Rohit has shown he can score versus pace and bounce with a good record in Australia and England, and many experts believe his struggles in Southafrica are a mental issue not technical.
Twitterati though has wasted no time in having a real go at Rohit Sharma across this tour, many are now coming back at him for his runs scored in November and December versus Srilanka and are saying that he can only score versus easy opponents.
Many also believe that he has been a bunny to the South African fast bowler Kagiso Rabada as he has struggled against him and has got out to him a lot in Test matches and one-dayers alike.
Many tweets have come in expressing their anger and disappointments about Rohit”s batting in South Africa.

Rohit needs to quickly score runs on this tour as it”s an important series for India they”ve lost another overseas test series here and are winning the one-day series but looking ahead India would not want Rohit to be so short of runs and confidence.
Otherwise, Twitterati is not going to mind any of this they are in fact having their best chance to have a go at a player who has been in this severe criticism period before.

Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan are limited overs specialists just like Murali Vijay and Cheteshwar Pujara are Test specialists. Let's accept that fact and pick them in the right formats.
