Rohit Sharma: "It is pretty disappointing. We tried to set a platform and keep wickets in hand for the last two sessions, but they bowled perfectly as well. He's coming here for the first time, these conditions can get really tough, but he showed great character, solid technique as well. He's got everything to be successful at this level, I hope he goes from strength to strength, and he's got all the backing from the team as well. He's not a statistical person, just wants to play for the country and do well for the team, but unfortunately he's not got a lot of support from the other side."
