Rohit Sharma
India vs Australia 1st ODI: The second ODI between India and Australia will be played on March 19 at Visakhapatnam ground. Team India won the first ODI by 5 wickets. In this match, KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja played brilliant innings for India. Because of both these players, India was successful in registering victory. But in the first ODI, a big weakness of Team India has come to the fore, which captain Rohit Sharma will have to solve. Let’s know about it.
This weakness came to the fore
The Indian top order batsmen flopped badly in the first ODI against Australia. Team India’s start was very bad. When opener Ishaan Kishan got out after scoring just 3 runs. After this Virat Kohli got out after scoring four runs. Even Suryakumar Yadav, the explosive batsman of T20 cricket, could not even open the account.
Rohit Sharma will return
The Indian team would like to get an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series by winning the second match and would also like to improve the batting, because at one stage the team lost four wickets for 39 runs and later the score was 83 for five wickets. After which Rahul and Jadeja together gave the hosts the victory with 61 balls to spare. The return of skipper Rohit Sharma will certainly strengthen the top-order, which crumbled before the pace and ‘variation’ of Australian pacer Mitchell Starc.
These batsmen have been flops
Rohit Sharma will open the innings due to which Ishaan Kishan will have to sit out of the playing XI. Suryakumar Yadav has not been able to find his rhythm in the 50-over format which could be a cause for concern. Suryakumar, famous for his excellent batting in T20 International, has still not been able to earn the same fame in ODIs. He has not been able to score a half-century in all the five ODIs this year. At the same time, Ishaan Kishan has not appeared in rhythm after scoring a double century against Bangladesh.
