"This Is A Different Guy": Ravi Shastri On Rohit Sharma's Form

Former India cricketer Ravi Shastri has backed out-of-form Mumbai Indians' (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma to do well in a must-win game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and said that fellow Mumbaikar does not need any motivation to come out of his lean patch. Speaking on Star Sports Studio, Ravi Shastri said, "Rohit doesn't need any motivation.

But once runs start flowing out of his bat then it will be difficult to stop him. This is a different guy."

MI skipper's IPL 2023 has not been ideal as he has so far scored only 257 runs in 13 matches with an average of 19.77, not including the final league game against Sunrisers Hyderabad.

After witnessing 68 highly entertaining and tightly contested games and several nail-biting finishes, we have finally arrived on the last day of the league stage of IPL 2023, and yet the four finalists haven't been confirmed, such has been the level of competition in the Toughest T20.

The last two games of IPL 2023 league stage are meaningful as the result of these matches will give us the fourth-best team of the tournament. That fourth team will take on Lucknow Super Giants in the Eliminator.

The script of the Race to Playoffs in IPL 2023 couldn't have been better as we got two of three qualifying teams into the top four on the penultimate day. Chennai Super Kings and Lucknow Super Giants won their last league games and secured the playoffs berth on Super Saturday.

The focus now shifts to Super Sunday - the last doubleheader of the Incredible T20 - where five-time champions Mumbai Indians take on beleaguered Sunrisers Hyderabad while Royal Challengers Bangalore host holders
