Suresh Raina in support of Rohit

Suresh Raina said while talking to Times of India that Rohit Sharma has not gone to Australia for personal reasons. His wife is pregnant and she is going to become a mother for the second time. This is the most important thing in Rohit's life at the moment. Before Suresh Raina, former Australian captain Aaron Finch had also justified Rohit's decision. According to him, at such a time, Rohit's decision to stay with his wife is right.

Rohit Sharma is practicing

Rohit Sharma may not have gone to Australia but this player is busy preparing for the series. According to media reports, Rohit Sharma is practicing for the Australia tour in Mumbai. It is believed that Rohit Sharma will go to Australia after the Perth Test. And he will be available from the second test. In his place in the first Test, Jasprit Bumrah will captain him, who is the vice-captain of the team on the tour.

Recently, on Rohit Sharma's decision of not playing in the first Test, former captain and veteran cricketer Sunil Gavaskar had said that in place of Rohit Sharma, someone else should be given the captaincy in the entire series. Whenever Rohit joins the team, he should play a series against Australia as a player. Most of the players did not seem to agree with this statement of Sunil Gavaskar.
