India vs australia series News

Rohit Sharma's future in Test cricket is now in question. A single half-century in eight Tests this season, coupled with inconsistent performances, has raised doubts about his long-term place in the format.

Injury concerns are nothing new for cricketers, but when it strikes at such a critical juncture, it can alter the course of a team's fortune. Akash Deep, who had shown promise in his previous outings against Australia, will now miss the Sydney Test.

A scenario is emerging where both India and Australia could finish with identical points — 126 out of 228 — and 55.26% of available points.

It’s important to remember that Rohit Sharma has had a stellar career in Indian cricket. His journey from being a white-ball specialist to a reliable Test opener is nothing short of remarkable.

Despite the ongoing discussions about his remuneration, Gambhir is already concentrating on assembling a support staff of his choice, gearing up for the significant challenges ahead during his three-year tenure.

Rohit's century made him the first Indian captain to score a hundred in all three formats of the game.

This event took place in the 77th over of the Australian innings when Marnus Labuschagne was bowling. At that time, Rohit was batting at 115 and Jadeja was on 7 runs as a new batsman.

Yuvraj Singh, who was not in the squad for the Lanka series, was expected to return after chief selector MSK Prasad had said that the southpaw was rested, not dropped.
