Pink-Ball Test May Be Difficult But Can't Be An Excuse: Captain

December 09, 2024

Bruised and battered after the 10-wicket drubbing at the hands of Australia in the Pink-ball Test at the Adelaide Oval, India skipper Rohit Sharma said that the concept of playing a day-night Test is always challenging but that cannot be an excuse for their flop show with the bat across both innings.

Pink-Ball Test May Be Difficult But Can't Be An Excuse: Captain

Rohit acknowledged that his team underperformed, failing to replicate their success from the opening Test in Perth. He praised Australia for capitalizing on their chances and emphasised the importance of bouncing back in the third Test at the Gabba in Brisbane, starting December 14.

"A disappointing week for us, we didn't play well, and Australia played better cricket than us and won the Test match. We failed to grab our opportunities," Rohit remarked.
