'Rohit allowed Australia easy runs…': Ganguly hammers India captain's decision after horrendous Day 1 in WTC Final

Hindustan Times  

Team India endured a tough outing on Day 1 of the World Test Championship final against Australia, as the latter put up a strong score of 327/3 at Stumps, with Travis Head scoring a brilliant century. The duo stayed the entire day unbeaten and former India captain Sourav Ganguly wasn't too happy with Rohit, stating that the skipper allowed Australia back in the game with “easy runs.” "India will be a bit disappointed. I thought India started well just after Lunch but lost the feel a bit as the game progressed," Ganguly said after the Aussies had reached 170/3 at tea. I think Rohit Sharma with his field placements at that stage probably allowed some easy runs to happen and now Australia are in a good position," Ganguly further said.
