Adelaide Test: Rohit confirms line-up as India eye bigger lead
The Statesman
|December 06, 2024
Sharma confirmed that India will stick to its opening combination of KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal
Making a comeback for the day-night Test at the Adelaide Oval starting Friday, Rohit Sharma put to rest the biggest query pertaining to the visiting side's playing combination, especially the opener's slot.
The India captain confirmed that the team will stick to its opening combination of KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal while he will slot in the middle order.
Speaking to the reporters on the eve of the Pink ball Test, Rohit confirmed saying, "KL will open (in Adelaide). The way he batted and his partnership with Jaiswal was instrumental in that first test win. And I felt that there's no need to change that now. Maybe in the future things will be different, I don't know. So based on what has happened and what KL has shown outside of India, he probably deserves that place at this point."
