Rohit Sharma could be cursing for missing a babysitter in the hat-trick ball of Axar Patel against Bangladesh in the Champions Trophy. Axar could have become the first Indian to claim a hat-trick in the Champions Trophy, but lost it in an agonizing way. It seems that it is better for Rohit to take more catches to forget than Gaffe and also improve the percentage of capture efficiency.

According to Espncricinfo, Rohit is among the Fildeadores who had the greatest amount of possibilities for capture in ODI since 2023 and leave most of them.

More captures than everyone else

Rohit has never been a slack in the field, but has failed to hold on to 10 opportunities in total, while collapsed mainly inside the circle to discuss the fields with their bowling players.

Brandon King of the Western Indies has also seen 22 opportunities to fall for him, but completed 14 of them, while Rohit completed 12.

According to statistics, more than 26 players have had more than 20 opportunities for capture in the men’s hate since 2023. Together with the King, the captain of Sri Lanka, Charith Asalanka, has also managed to take 14 trapped and frustrate eight opportunities.

The Morfoso gardener of New Zealand, Glenn Phillips, has had 23 opportunities and is much more efficient with 69.57 percent. However, this could be the case of Phillips often flying towards the ball instead of the ball is hit directly towards him.

Phillips has begun his time in Pakistan in a good way after having scored his inaugural Odi Hundred in the Tri-series series, followed by a Rapidfire 61 of 39 balls against Pakistan in the opening match of Champions Trophy. He also achieved a stunner while adjusted at the point to say goodbye to Pakistan’s captain, Mohammed Rizwan, when the Black Caps won the game for 60 races.

Rohit is not the worst gardener but a poor receiver

Together with Phillips, Sri Lanka’s Pathum Nissanka has also recorded a capture efficiency of 69.57 percent after completing 16 trapped and left seven.

Capture efficiency is an easily quantifiable method, but efforts to save executions remain the most crucial part of the role of a gardener in the Cricket field. Rohit has done it several times while filtering inside the circle during the opening power game.

The mockery he received after dropping a simple capture was inevitable, but it is not different from many greats of the game that had butter fingers. The talk can cease or increase depending on how to hit Pakistan on Sunday.

Speaking of captures, Virat Kohli is four from the legend of the Australian legend Ricky Ponting of 160 captures Odi. Mahela Jaywardne de Sri Lanka, who has taken 218 trapped in her 448 games, is at the top of the list followed by Ponting and Kohli.
