Rohit Sharma’s Knock Will Give Him Great Satisfaction, Says Abhishek Nayar
Captain Shubman Gill: Former India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar believes that Rohit Sharma’s 73-run knock in the second ODI against Australia will give him a lot of satisfaction despite missing out on the century at Adelaide Oval on Thursday.
Rohit’s return to international cricket in the series opener only yielded eight runs in Perth. The poor batting effort in the first ODI attracted a lot of backlash towards the former India captain. However, Rohit silenced his critics with a solid knock in the next match, along with Shreyas Iyer’s 61 and guided India to 264/9 in 50 overs. Although the result didn’t go in the visitors' favour, but it will surely boost the morale of the opening batter.
Half-centuries from Matthew Short (74) and Cooper Connolly (61 not out) took the hosts over the line in 46.2 overs as Australia take a 2-0 unassailable lead in the three-match series.
