Cricket enthusiast and ex-cricketer Yograj Singh has come to the defense of Rohit Sharma whose ongoing performance in the Asia Cup 2022 tournament has sparked discussions and debates about his fitness.

Rohit Sharma, also known as 'Hitman', is renowned for his elegant batsmanship and stellar performances in ODIs and T20s. However, during this year's Asia Cup, Rohit has faced extensive criticism due to his weight and an apparent lack of fitness on the field. In reaction to this, Yograj Singh, the ex-cricketer, and father of Yuvraj Singh has urged Rohit to continue playing for at least five more years and bluntly criticized critics who question his fitness, calling them irrelevant.

"Aapki Humein 5 Saal Aur Zarurat Hai, Rohit Sharma" (translating to "Rohit Sharma, we need you for another 5 years"), said Yograj Singh on Twitter. He further added, "Unki fitness ke liye hataya hai shaayeste jiske liye india wo asia cup mein khela hai... Kohli ka bhi to woh jawaab dega... india jese shaayeste jo india ke liye jersey banate hain unki maang lijiye (translating to "Fitness is a state of mind. Those who criticize India's Asia Cup player must provide an answer to Kohli as well. They have no right to criticize those who sew the jersey with the Indian flag)."

The statement has sparked mixed reactions from cricket enthusiasts and fans, with many praising Yograj Singh for his defense of Rohit Sharma, while others have argued that discussing a player's fitness is valid, especially when it affects their performance.

The discussion continues to spark a debate among cricket fans and enthusiasts about the importance of a player's fitness regime and its impact on the team's success.
