'Look at the way Rohit Sharma has batted...': Mike Hussey wants Australia to emulate India captain in Indore Test

Hindustan Times  

Australia batting strategy has been immensely criticised after their twin defeats in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. The overuse of sweep shots led to a catastrophic collapse in the second Test as Australia went down from a position of putting up a challenging target to imploding in just 90 minutes, which subsequently resulted in the tourists conceding the trophy for the fourth successive time after India's unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match series. Mike Hussey; Rohit Sharma So what can Steve Smith-led Australia change ahead of the third Test in Indore? While the task of a comeback looks improbable, a rather "optimistic" Mike Hussey wants the Aussies to emulate what India skipper Rohit Sharma has done so far in the series. “Obviously, the Australians can take a leaf out of Rohit Sharma’s book and have a look at the way he has batted so far,” Hussey said.
