In Sydney, Australia, former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar spoke about Rohit Sharma not playing in the final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. During the toss, star Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah announced that Rohit decided to rest for this important match. Manjrekar shared his thoughts on X, saying it was “typical” of Rohit to do what’s best for the team. However, he didn’t understand why there was confusion about the decision, as it wasn’t discussed at the toss.
India’s batting has been a worry leading up to this game. With senior players not performing well, younger players have had to step up and score runs. Australia’s fast bowler Mitchell Starc had some injury issues in the previous match, but he is ready to play in Sydney. Rohit Sharma has struggled in this series, scoring just 31 runs in five innings, which is very low. He faced criticism after his poor performance in a recent series against Bangladesh as well.
In the Sydney Test, Jasprit Bumrah won the toss and chose to bat first against Australia. The teams are as follows:
Australia: Sam Konstas, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Steven Smith, Travis Head, Beau Webster, Alex Carey, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Scott Boland.
India: Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Washington Sundar, Jasprit Bumrah, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj.
