AUS vs IND 4th Test | 'I have no regrets about playing that shot': Rohit Sharma on his dismissal on Day 2

India TV News  

Rohit Sharma was dismissed after a strong start as he attempted to go for a lofted shot off Nathan Lyon in India's first innings on Day 2 of the Brisbane Test. The Indian opener was criticised heavily for his shot selection, with many former cricketers including Sunil Gavaskar lashing out his "inexcusable" choice of shot. It was a plan so I actually have no regrets about playing that shot, it is something I like to, Nathan Lyon is a smart bowler, he bowled into me so I was not able to get the elevation." Earlier, Australia were bowled out on 369 as India's rookie pace attack dismissed the remaining five wickets of the host side's innings on a cumulative total of 95.
