India's captain Rohit Sharma walks off the field after losing his wicket during the day two of the second cricket test match between Australia and India According to 7news.com.au, out-of-form Rohit, who batted at No.6 for India in the second Test, spent a considerable amount of time facing the new ball in India's first training session in Brisbane. Initially, the training session hinted at India sticking to their ongoing opening combination of KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal for the third Test as the pair started in the nets while Rohit kept himself busy in slips training. Following the Adelaide Test, Shastri wanted Rohit to come back as an opener at the Gabba as he reckoned he looked too subdued in the middle-order.
