2nd ODI: After Perth Setback, Rohit Redeems Himself In Adelaide
Sydney Cricket Ground: Rohit Sharma silenced his critics in style as he notched up a confidence-boosting 73 against Australia in the second ODI here at the Adelaide Oval. The former skipper’s knock came after India faced early setbacks in the form of Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli’s early dismissals.
The veteran cricketer faced criticisms after managing to score just eight runs off the 14 deliveries he faced in the first ODI in Perth. The critical statements continued when the 37-year-old opened the innings for India in the second ODI, as it took him 28 balls to get to the exact figures this time.
However, from 8 (28) at one point in the game, Rohit made every ball count to end up with 73 runs to his name off 97 deliveries, his slowest ODI fifty. He unleashed a flurry of boundaries and also hit his iconic pull shot as the crowd at Adelaide cheered him on.
