India National Cricket Team skipper Rohit Sharma has been made to work hard in the ongoing fourth Test against the Australia National Cricket Team. The match between the two teams is taking place at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.

Australia National Cricket Team, who won the toss and opted to bat first, put Rohit Sharma and his team under pressure right from the start. Debutant Sam Konstas was the wrecker-in-chief behind the main carnage and made sure that he took his team off to a flying start with the bat in the first hour itself.

Sam Konstas took the attack to Jasprit Bumrah and disturbed the lines and lengths of the India National Cricket Team pacer. However, after his dismissal, it is Marnus Labuschagne who has taken centre stage and is making sure that he puts his team in a comfortable position and puts India under pressure.

Marnus Labuschagne has looked solid with the bat and has played some great shots. His batting has made India National Cricket Team skipper Rohit Sharma think a lot about the field placements as well as the bowling changes as he is looking desperate for a wicket.

With wickets not coming quickly, Rohit Sharma has been visibly frustrated and this was evident after the 47th over of the innings when he warned Australia batter. The India National Cricket Team skipper went close to Marnus Labuschagne and was seen scolding him for running on the pitch before taking his fielding position.
