'Impact Player' Critic Rohit Sharma Not In Playing XI, Named 'Substitute' In MI vs KKR Game
Days after criticising the IPL's 'impact player' rule, Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma found himself on the bench in the match against KKR as an impact substitute in an IPL 2024 game. "I am not a big fan of Impact sub rule. It is going to hold all rounders back, eventually cricket is played by 11 players not 12 players. You are taking out so much from game to make it entertaining for people around. If you look just from the cricketing aspect of it I feel guys like Shivam Dube and Washington Sundar aren't getting to bowl, which for us is not a good thing," Rohit had said on 'Club Prairie Fire' podcast.
