Australia vs India 2018-19: Rohit Sharma Tries a Yuvraj Singh During the Second ODI
Updated - 15 Jan 2019, 02:30 PM
Indian National Cricket team will aim to chase down the target to level terms in the ongoing second ODI at the Adelaide Oval. Meanwhile, during the course of Australia’s innings, vice-captain Rohit Sharma produced a brilliant effort at the covers.
However, the hosts once again produced a brilliant effort with the bat in the second fixture. Even with Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s impressive efforts at the death, Australia have scored 93 off the final 10. They have posted a good score on board, especially after the wobbly start that they had. Shaun Marsh, drawing confidence from a fifty in the previous game, kicked on for greater things today to lead Australia’s recovery from 26 for 2.
Their first burst of momentum came from targetting debutant Mohammed Siraj, which really set things rolling for the hosts. The others in the lineup played around Marsh really well. Glenn Maxwell, who batted at No 7 played some shots down the order to propel Australia to a good score.
But the short boundary is in play here, and the pitch doesn’t seem to have a whole lot of help. So India will hope for a better response than what they managed in the first ODI.
However, during the fag end of Australia’s innings, Rohit Sharma attempted a brilliant catch at the covers. The Indian Premier League franchise Mumbai Indians took to Twitter to post a scintillating effort from their skipper Rohit Sharma at the covers during the Tuesday’s clash at Adelaide.
What an effort! Rohit almost does a @YUVSTRONG12 at covers ?#CricketMeriJaan #AUSvIND

Yuvraj Singh was soon to reply to the tweet by Mumbai Indians official Twitter handle saying the attempt was almost close to him.
“Almost,” Yuvraj tweeted.
Almost?
