The captain of India, Rohit Sharma, is not playing in the first Test match in Perth because he stayed in Mumbai to give birth to his second kid.
In the current Border-Gavaskar Trophy match against Australia, a former Indian cricketer wants Rohit Sharma to bat in the middle when he rejoins the playing XI. Because he stayed in Mumbai to give birth to his second kid, India captain Rohit is not playing in the first Test match in Perth. The great batsman is anticipated to travel to Perth on Sunday to join his teammates. Rohit and his wife Ritika Sajdeh were welcomed with a boy earlier this month. KL Rahul, a seasoned batsman, has shown himself in Rohit’s absence at the top of the order with an undefeated 62 in the second innings in Perth.
In the first innings of India’s terrible batting display, he also looked solid, striking a cool 26 before being controversially dismissed. The management of the Indian squad was cautioned by Ganesh not to rearrange Rahul’s batting order after he was moved up to replace Rohit.
“All you need to do is have KL Rahul start the entire tour. Don’t move his spot again, for heaven’s sake. He is the most reliable option to deal with the new ball’s conditions. In a post on X, Ganesh stated that Rohit is capable of batting in the middle order.
Due in large part to Rahul’s ability to tackle the new ball, Ganesh recommended that the management attempt Rohit in the middle order for the rest of the series.”Rohit will have to bat in the middle order and this opening partnership must continue. “Hopefully, #AUSvIND #BorderGavaskarTrophy, common sense wins out,” he added in a different post.
