About the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Skipper Rohit Sharma hinted at one of his hundreds of most impressive Tests under pressure against a quality Australian attack as India took a crucial 144-turn lead in the series opener after the end of the day. second at 321 to 7. Rohit (120) displayed class and composure and in the process became the first Indian captain to score in a century in all three formats.
While Rohit’s Ninth Trial percentile is worth its weight in gold, Ravindra Jadeja’s half-eighteenth century (66 not out) is also priceless. The knockout of the almighty will be no less important in the context of the game.
Jadeja once again showed her true worth by adding 61 runs for the sixth racket with Rohit and another 81 for the eighth racket champion with Axar Patel (52 hit) who is also playing a good hand.
It was a battle of attrition for the Indians, especially Rohit and Jadeja as the hosts took the lead 244 times in the second day.
On a slow track where other batters find it extremely difficult to score, the Indian captain embodies focus.
