Rohit’s duck against Windies takes him up in an unwanted list

BASSETERRE: India’s all-format captain Rohit Sharma surged up in an unwanted list of the batters with most dismissals on a single-digit score in T20Is following a golden duck against West Indies in the second match.

West Indies left-arm pacer Obed McCoy, who dismantled the Indian batting line-up with a record-breaking six-wicket haul also forced the Indian captain to surge in the list of the batters with the most single-digits scores in T20Is as he removed the latter on a duck.

The right-handed batter had a forgetful day with the bat as he perished on the first ball of the match, bagging a golden duck.

Following this, Rohit has registered 41 single-digit scores in T20Is, moving just one behind Ireland’s Kevin O’Brien, who tops the list with 42. Pakistan star all-rounder Shahid Afridi is fourth in the list with 37.

 

Furthermore, Rohit has also the most number of ducks (8) by an Indian batter in T20Is. Whereas, his deputy KL Rahul is second on the list with four.

It is pertinent to mention here that the hosts West Indies thrashed India by five wickets in the second T20I to level the five-match series 1-1.
