Can fly to Australia soon

Rohit Sharma's chances of playing in the first Test match against Australia starting from November 22 in Perth have increased. There is less than a week left for the start of the first Test and it is not clear whether Rohit will play in the match only after a few practice sessions even if he reaches Australia as soon as possible. No possibility can be ruled out right now. Initially, Rohit's participation in the first Test match was doubtful, even though head coach Gautam Gambhir had expressed hope that the Indian captain would be available for the match. In such a situation, if he becomes a part of the first match, then it will be a relief news for Team India.
