Rohit Sharma’s big announcement a day before the match
The second match of the five-Test series being played between India and Australia is now less than 24 hours away. The match will be played on 6 December at the historic ground of Adelaide. This will be a pink ball test and will be played in day and night. Meanwhile, before the match, there was suspense about who would open for India in this match. But captain Rohit Sharma came just a day before the match and almost revealed this. He has said a big thing about the pairing of KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul had laid the foundation of India’s victory.
Rohit Sharma was absent in the first match of Border Gavaskar Trophy. Jasprit Bumrah played the responsibility of captaincy in that match. KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal opened for India. This pair could not do anything special in the first innings of the match, but in the second innings, both of them together created new records by making a partnership of more than 200 runs. Now that Rohit Sharma has returned as captain in the second match. In such a situation, the same question was in everyone’s mind for the last several days that who will do the opening now? Yashasvi Jaiswal will definitely be an opener, but who will field with him?
Rohit Sharma will play in the middle order, once again the same opening pair.
When captain Rohit Sharma met the media on Thursday, a day before the match, the biggest question was this. On this Rohit Sharma gave a clear answer. Rohit Sharma has said that KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal have made a match-winning partnership for us. In such a situation, it does not seem that there is any need for any change in it. This is in the best interest of the team and it is a very easy decision. This means that in the next match also, Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul will be seen opening, Rohit Sharma will come to bat in the middle order. At number 5 or 6.
Rohit will not open in test after 2172 days
Rohit Sharma last played in the middle order in Test for Team India in the year 2018. After this, in the year 2019, when the South African team came to tour India, Rohit Sharma took the responsibility of opening from there and since then till now he has been opening only. That is, if it is converted into days, then after 2172 days, Rohit Sharma will now be seen batting in the middle order in Tests. This will be a pink ball test and by the time Rohit comes to bat, it is expected that the shine of the ball will have reduced a bit.
Lots of praise for young players
While giving the team date, Rohit Sharma said that Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rishabh Pant, Shubman Gill are the players of the new generation. Rohit Sharma reminded that when he himself came to Australia for the first time, his thinking was only about how to score, but now the new players are thinking about winning the match. Winning is very important for new players. The next match is going to be very important for both India and Australia teams. It remains to be seen how the teams and players manage to perform.
