Rohit Sharma clears fitness test, to leave for Australia

The Hindu  

Having passed his mandatory fitness test at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru, Rohit Sharma is set to leave for Australia in a couple of days and join India’s squad for the last two Tests. The BCCI had said last month that Rohit’s fitness would be assessed on December 11. However, it is learnt that Rohit, who had injured his hamstring during the IPL, cleared all the mandatory fitness drills on Thursday evening under the watchful eyes of the NCA medical staff, with NCA head of cricket Rahul Dravid and chief selector Sunil Joshi in attendance. Having returned to Mumbai late on Thursday, Rohit will now travel to Australia via Dubai and serve the requisite 14-day ‘hard’ quarantine.
