In IPL 2025, Rohit Sharma got Irfan Pathan out of the commentary? All -rounder himself confessed the truth

Irfan Pathan commentary: The Indian cricket team’s previous tour of Australia was in many ways instead of memorable forgetting. Team India lost the 5 Test series 1-3, and during this time the Test career of three big Indian players ended.

Ravichandran Ashwin retired in the beach series, while Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli said goodbye to the format after a few months. But another big anecdote associated with this tour has now surfaced, in which former India all -rounder Irfan Pathan revealed how he was dropped from the commentary panel of IPL 2025 after a statement.

Rohit Sharma failed badly in Australia

Test captain Rohit Sharma’s Australia tour was extremely disappointing in terms of performance. He did not play the first Test and scored a total of 164 runs in the remaining three Tests, including only one half -century. His average was just 6.20, the worst among foreign captains in Australia. In such a situation, questions were also raised on playing in his last Test.

Irfan Pathan revealed

In an interview to ‘Lalantop’, Irfan Pathan said that broadcasters wanted to have a respectable attitude towards Rohit Sharma during the interview, even though his performance was weak. Pathan said, “Rohit Sharma is a great player in white ball cricket, but his average in Test cricket that year was just 6. We just said that if he was not a captain, he would not get a place in the team and it is true.”

The truth of being out of commentary in IPL 2025

After the tour, when the IRFAN Pathan was removed from the commentary panel in IPL 2025, various discussions started. Now he made it clear that his job as a commentator is to tell the truth, whether it is praise or criticism. He said, “If a player is playing the best, then it is the job of the commentator to praise him and if he is playing badly. We are responsible for the fans.”

Sydney himself was out of the test

During the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Rohit Sharma dropped himself from the playing XI in the Sydney Test. During the match on 5 January, he said in an interview to Irfan Pathan and Jatin Sapru that his bat was not scandaling, and he has taken this decision for the betterment of the team.
