India captain Rohit Sharma has come under fierce criticism over his captaincy in the ongoing three-match Test series against New Zealand. In the ongoing second Test in Pune, several former cricketers questioned Rohit over his tactics, especially the field placements, as New Zealand scored quick runs to increase their lead over 300 runs on Day 2.
