IND vs AUS: Captain Rohit Sharma got injured before the Melbourne Test, the team's tension increased

India vs Australia: The fourth Test of the Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia is starting from December 26 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. Before this Boxing Day Test, Team India has suffered a big setback, where team captain Rohit Sharma got injured during the practice session. Rohit suffered an injury while facing India's throwdown specialist Daya, after which he appeared uncomfortable. Although he continued batting for some time even after this, he finally decided to leave practice.

According to reports, Rohit was batting during India's second net session in Melbourne ahead of the Boxing Day Test match. After his injury, the Indian team physio applied an ice pack on the injured area and Rohit was groaning in pain. During this time, along with Sarfaraz Khan and Yashasvi Jaiswal, some other staff members were also with him. Although this setback is not serious enough to rule Rohit out of the fourth Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test, it is certainly a matter of concern.

Rohit's bat is yearning for runs

The Indian captain has scored 607 runs in 24 Test innings so far this year at an average of 26.39, which is his lowest score so far in a calendar year. After flopping badly against New Zealand, the Hitman's bat is quiet against Australia. This is the reason why the fourth Test to be held at Melbourne Cricket Ground has become very important for them. The situation is that he has scored less runs in the series than bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah and Akashdeep.

The news is being updated.
