Rohit Sharma doesn't seem to have rectified his mistakes. The Indian captain's poor run with the bat continued in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy with yet another single-digit score in Melbourne in the fourth Test against Australia. At the end of his flop show in Melbourne, Rohit's average stood at just 6.20, which is the lowest ever by a touring captain in Australia in a Test series. With India chasing 340 runs on the final day to go 2-1 up in the series, Rohit looked to have settled in alongside fellow opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. Mark Waugh's blunt remark on Rohit Sharma Meanwhile, Rohit's poor form has been criticised by former Australian cricketer Mark Waugh.
