“Never saw Rohit Sharma performing when his team needs him the most, whether it’s for India or MI,” upset Matthew Hayden said as quoted by businessupturn.com.
“A lot was expected of Rohit in the ongoing season but the skipper failed to live up to the standards and didn’t make any significant contribution to the team”.
