The last match of Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 between India and Australia is being played at Sydney Cricket Ground. This match is very important for Team India. Team India, which is trailing 1-2 in the series, will have to win this match at any cost to level the series. But in this match the Indian team is playing with a big change. Rohit Sharma is not a part of the Sydney Test. He has been kept out due to poor form. At the same time, Jasprit Bumrah is commanding the team. However, Rohit has been seen supporting his players in this match also. He also came on the field on the second day of the game.
Even though Rohit Sharma is not a part of the playing 11, he wants to support the team even by sitting outside. Something similar was seen on the second day of the Sydney Test also. Actually, Rohit Sharma entered the field during the drinks break. During this, he was seen talking to Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant and Mohammad Siraj. He had come to the field somewhere with some special message for these players. Now this step of Rohit is being praised a lot on social media.
