Former coach's advice to the Indian captain, play like a finisher at number 6; There will be expectations from Rohit in Melbourne

sports desk: The fourth match of the five-match Test series being played between India and Australia will be played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Three matches have been played so far in this series. Rohit Sharma played the remaining two tests except the first test, but his performance was nothing special. Rohit Sharma is struggling to score runs in this series. Former India coach Ravi Shastri says that Rohit Sharma should enter with a clear mindset and also change his strategy and adopt aggression against the bowlers.

Rohit missed the first Test match in Australia to be with his family at the time of the birth of his second child. It was expected that he would play as an opening batsman but after KL Rahul's brilliant inning of 77 runs in India's win in Perth, there was a change in the batting order and Rohit was dropped at number six. However, this change was not beneficial for Rohit as he has been able to score only 10, three and six runs in the last three innings while Rahul took advantage of the opportunity by scoring 84 runs in the first innings in the third Test in Brisbane.

Speaking to ICC, Shastri said that I would like to see Rohit Sharma doing well. There should be a slight change in his strategy because he can still be very dangerous at this sixth position. I think he should be very clear in his mindset to go out on the field and attack the opposition and not worry about anything else.

Shastri feels that Rohit should stay away from defensive mentality. The only thing you don't want is for them to be in two minds about whether to defend or attack. I think they should attack. They should attack the opposition team on this number. Because if he stays at the crease for the first 10-15 minutes then why doesn't he play his natural game? And attack the opponent team.

Shastri feels this is the best way for Rohit to get back into form and win matches for India. He also said that the best number six batsmen in the world are those who have the ability to counter-attack. This would be the best way not only to return to form but also to win the match for India. Because this is an important number. (with language input)
