Harbhajan Singh Slams Shama Mohammed Over Rohit Sharma Fitness Comment

Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has strongly objected to the comments made by Congress leader Shama Mohammed on the fitness of Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma. "Shama Mohammed has no right to make such negative comments about Rohit Sharma."

Harbhajan Singh released a video message on Monday and said that Rohit Sharma is a player who has served Indian cricket for many years and is still leading the team well. Rohit Sharma is a great player who has done a lot for the country. He is still the captain of the Indian cricket team and remains in the team on the basis of his fitness and performance. If his fitness was not good, he would not have been part of the team.

Harbhajan Singh launched a verbal attack on Shama Mohammed, saying that to join the team you have to go through many levels of fitness. I would like to know whether she is a fitness coach, a president of the BCCI or associated with any sport, so that she knows more about it. I don't think she understood the facts correctly.

He further said that Rohit Sharma is being compared to someone who is still in the team, but this comparison is not fair at all. I think Shama Mohammed doesn't have the knowledge of the right fitness parameters. We should focus on Rohit Sharma's contribution rather than just discussing his fitness or personal matters.

Harbhajan Singh's statement came after Congress leader Shama Mohammed raised questions about Rohit Sharma's fitness. Shama Mohammed called Rohit Sharma a "fat player" and an "ineffective captain" on the social media platform 'X'. She wrote, "Rohit Sharma is too fat for a player! You need to lose weight! And of course, he is India's most ineffective captain.

Supporting this, senior TMC leader and MP Saugata Roy said, "I have heard and rightly so, Rohit Sharma's performance was very bad. He had scored a century, but on the rest of the occasions, he was dismissed for 2, 3, 4 or 5 runs. They don't have to be in the team. The Indian team wins because the rest of the players play well, but there is no contribution from the captain. What Shama Mohammed has said is right. "
