The captain of India, Rohit Sharma, has revealed something startling. When Rohit arrived in Australia, he told Ashwin about his retirement. According to Rohit, Ashwin stated that it would be preferable if he retired is the team did not require his services. In addition, Rohit claimed to have talked Ashwin into taking part in the second Test.
Ashwin’s abrupt retirement has shocked the cricket world, but captain Rohit Sharma has revealed something very significant. R Ashwin was convinced to play in the Adelaide Test by Rohit Sharma, according to him. In Perth, he wished to retire. Additionally, Rohit stated that nobody is certain of the Indian team’s lineup for the final two Test matches.
The PTI report claims that following the 0-3 loss in the home series against New Zealand, Ashwin considered retiring. He had communicated to the team management that he would not travel to Australia at all if he was not included in the playing eleven for the Australia series. Under such circumstances, India made it to Australia, where Washington Sundar was given a chance to play in the opening Test match of the series.
Rohit had spoken with Ashwin
When the final playing eleven for the Perth Test was announced, Rohit was not there. Coach Gautam Gambhir most likely made the decision regarding India’s off-spinner going forward, and Ashwin was not the name chosen. On the third day of the Perth Test, Rohit arrived in Australia, and Ashwin spoke with him. Following this, Rohit convinced Ashwin to participate in the Adelaide Pink Ball Test match.
Nobody is certain of the team’s makeup
Tell you what, in the third Test, Ravindra Jadeja gets a chance, and the rest is history. After the third Test at Gabba ended in a draw, Rohit stated that nobody could predict the team’s makeup for the two remaining matches, which are scheduled for Melbourne and Sydney. Ravindra Jadeja participated in the Brisbane Test.
