Indore: Indian captain Rohit Sharma Describing the nine-wicket defeat in the third Test against Australia as ‘an unusual match’, he said on Friday that his team did not show the spirit and ability to fight. trailing 0-2 in the series and Border-Gavaskar Trophy Australia sealed their place in the World Test Championship (WTC) final with a memorable win on a spin-assisted pitch at the Holkar Stadium here.
Excellent performance by the bowlers
Rohit Sharma said at the award ceremony after the match, when you are playing on challenging pitches, you can create pressure by bowling at one place. We allowed their bowlers to bowl at one place. Credit should also go to their bowlers, especially Nathan Lyon. We had to try and show character but I think we couldn’t do that. Lyon took eight wickets for 64 runs in the second innings and paved the way for victory for Australia.
It is necessary for India to win the fourth Test
Rohit said, you can get a match with an unusual result where things don’t go your way. But still you need to unite the players and encourage them. He said, we wanted some players to spend time at the crease, but it did not happen. We were a little behind and we didn’t apply ourselves the way we wanted to. Rohit has not started thinking about the fourth Test in Ahmedabad.
Steve Smith said this
He said, to be honest, we have not thought about it (Ahmedabad Test) yet. We have just finished this test so we need to regroup and try again. We need to understand that we have to improve as a team. Australia’s acting captain Steve Smith gave credit to the bowlers for the victory and said that our bowlers did really well.
