Can Rohit find a way out of this slump?

Downward spiral
MUMBAI: Rohit Sharma is being celebrated everywhere. He was presented with a memento by BCCI president Roger Binny on Thursday to mark his 18 IPL seasons. A few days back, his state association MCA announced there would be a stand after Rohit's name at the Wankhede Stadium. He was also declared the brand ambassador of MCA's T20 league.
In another twelve days, Rohit will be cutting cakes on his 38th birthday. While soaking up the applause at these glittering events for his solid body of work, one would imagine his mind would be focused elsewhere given that he's aggregating only 82 runs in 6 innings this IPL season.
Then again, the former Mumbai Indians captain would want to take the positives out of the situation as experienced cricketers often do and his 16-ball 26 against Sunrisers Hyderabad, his best effort this season, might just get him started.
The trademark pull was back, so was the pick-up shot for six.
