BGT: Change In Batting Position Affected Rohit’s Rhythm, Feels Pujara

By IANS News December 17, 2024 • 12:50 PM View: 505

Cheteshwar Pujara: India cricketer Cheteshwar Pujara highlighted Rohit Sharma’s struggles in the ongoing series against Australia and said that the Indian captain’s move to the number 6 batting position has disrupted his rhythm and contributed to his lack of form.

India’s batting woes continued on Day 4 of the third Test at Gabba as captain Rohit Sharma once again failed to make an impact, dismissed for just 10 runs off 27 balls by Australia skipper Pat Cummins.

Rohit's form in the ongoing series has raised concerns, as Pujara emphasised that adjusting from opening the innings to batting in the middle order can create uncertainty, affecting a player’s momentum and decision-making under pressure.
