IND vs AUS: Rohit comes out with flying colours on a spin-friendly Nagpur track, cricket experts sing Hitman’s praises
Rohit has displayed attacking batsmanship in ODI and T20Is, but not that often in Test cricket. With India bundling Australia for just 177 on the first day of the first Test, the India skipper came out all guns blazing and took the attack to Australia’s bowlers. He was particularly severe to Nathan Lyon and did not allow the off-spinner to settle. When all other batters struggled to get going, the India skipper came out with flying colours on a spin-friendly Nagpur surface.
Congratulations Ro on your maiden 💯 as a captain. The only Indian captain to score 💯‘s in all the formats 🤩 #RohitSharma𓃵 #INDvAUS
