India vs Australia, 3rd ODI: The Indian team faced a 2-1 defeat in the 3-match ODI series against Australia at home. This was also India’s first ODI series defeat at home after four years; while considering the ODI World Cup, this defeat is seen as a danger bell for Team India. Now former Indian veteran player Sunil Gavaskar has sharply reacted to captain Rohit Sharma’s decision not to play in the first ODI.
Let us tell you that when the team was announced for the ODI series against Australia, Rohit Sharma rested from the first match played in Mumbai, in which Hardik Pandya took over the captaincy of the team.
On Star Sports, Sunil Gavaskar said he should play all the matches. You don’t want a captain who comes to play one match and doesn’t play in the rest. It can happen to any other player, but I know he didn’t play because of family.
Gavaskar further said the family must be left behind regarding the World Cup. Before this, you should finish everything and not miss any match unless there is an emergency. It is a different matter when a crisis comes.
