Will Rohit Sharma play in IND vs AUS 2nd Test?
Before participating in the IND vs AUS 2nd Test, Rohit Sharma and Co. will travel to Canberra on Wednesday for a two-day tour game scheduled for November 30. While the match doesn’t carry first-class status, it holds critical significance as a day/night affair, providing an ideal preparation ground for the IND vs AUS pink ball Test match to be played in Adelaide. Rohit is likely to feature in this match, further honing his skills against the pink Kookaburra ball.
