Overview
- Yograj Singh's InsideSport interview, published Wednesday and echoed by Hindustan Times and NDTV, questioned Abhishek Sharma's focus.
- He said he was "very disgusted" with the opener and blamed reels, parties, girls, money, and off-field shoots for a loss of focus.
- He argued Sharma must rotate strike instead of swinging for sixes and said he has messaged him not to take the game for granted.
- Sharma finished the tournament with 141 runs in eight matches and three ducks, though he struck a rapid half-century in the final against New Zealand.
- Singh also blasted Ravichandran Ashwin over remarks about Arjun Tendulkar, highlighting sharp public criticism among former players.
