Rohit Sharma’s form a concern ahead of Pink Ball test
The Team India skipper played his first match on Australian soil after missing the Perth test due to the birth of his second child. Rohit did not have a great start to his tour scoring just 4 runs in the practice match against Prime Ministers XI. Rohit Sharma was listed at No.5 in the Indian line-up which included 19 players in the warm-up game.
With KL Rahul and Yashavi Jaiswal playing terrific knocks in the Perth Test, the question now remains is where India will slot Rohit Sharma in the Pink Ball Test match.
