Rohit fails again; dismissed for 3
December 27, 2024 08:45India 8-1 (2 ovs) vs Aus 474 | Scorecard
Pat Cummins from the other end. Jaiswal taps the second ball on the off-side and takes a quick single to get off strike.
Rohit plays a sweetly-timed straight drive, hitting it back past the bowler with a mere push for three runs as Head makes a good stop near the ropes.
Jaiswal clips the fourth ball to fine leg for a single.
Cummins strikes the early blow as Rohit is caught in a tangle after trying to play the pull shot as he spoons a simple catch to Boland on the leg side.
Rohit's horror run continues as he walks back for three.
That was a good short ball from Cummins on the line of the stumps. Rohit can't resist going for the pull shot but is clearly beaten for pace and only manages the top edge.
Poor approach from Rohit to attempt such a reckless shot so early in the innings as India suffer an early blow.
K L Rahul walks in at No 3.
