'Rohit Sharma takes no nonsense. If they try to be flashy...': Shastri on India’s ‘best bowling attack in 50 years’
Hindustan Times‘Batters win you matches, but it is the bowlers who win you a tournament’. India are yet to make it through to the final, let alone win the 2023 World Cup, but their outright dominance in the home event, where they remain the only unbeaten side so far, winning all eight of their league games, has been down to their bowling attack, which has been deemed among the best ever in the tournament history. Former India coach Ravi Shastri concurred with the thought as well, but credited the "outstanding captaincy" of Rohit Sharma behind the stellar show from the bowlers. Ravi Shastri can’t stop praising India’s ‘best bowling attack in 50 years’ India have picked 75 wickets in eight matches in this World Cup, the second-most so far, six behind top-placed South Africa who have played a match more. When further questioned by Gilchrist on who controls this bowling attack, Shastri explained that while it is a combination of the experience of the bowlers and the Rohit's captaincy, he credited the latter more.
