Rohit Sharma has a big opportunity to heal the wounds of defeat in WC 2023, former Indian cricketer advised the 'captain'

The Indian team is on a tour of South Africa from December 10 for a series of all three formats. Before the start of both the series, individual players and captains will fly to South Africa.

Meanwhile, the biggest challenge for India is to win the Test series in South Africa after 31 years. In such a situation, now former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar has given important advice to Rohit Sharma. While talking to Star Sports, Gavaskar said that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been at the top of their form for the last 6-8 months.

Gavaskar further said that Rohit will play an important role for India in the series against South Africa. Gavaskar said that after opening, he will play an important role for the batsmen coming at number three, four and five.

The former captain said that Rohit Sharma has a big chance to compensate for the defeat in the World Cup 2023 by winning this Test series. To date, India has not been able to win a single test series against South Africa.

Last time too, India had to face a 2-1 defeat against South Africa in the Test series. In such a situation, former Indian players say that this time India has a big chance to convert this defeat into victory because many Indian players are in their form this time. In such a situation, India can change the 31-year-old record.
