India defeated Australia in the first Test match played in Perth under the leadership of Jasprit Bumrah, but under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, it seems to be in trouble in the second Test.

Rohit’s flop show continues
Indian captain Rohit Sharma’s flop show continues despite his comeback. Rohit, who has been struggling to score runs for some time, had a lot of expectations in the second innings, but once again the captain disappointed. Rohit could not even take advantage of the lifeline he got, which he got on Starc’s ball when he could not even open his account. This incident is from the 18th over. Starc bowled a bouncer on the third ball of this over, which Rohit tried to defend by moving forward. But the ball hit his pad directly. The umpire immediately declared him out. At the same time, Rohit took a review. The third umpire saw that Starc had overstepped, due to which it was declared a no ball, which saved Rohit from getting out. Rohit has not been able to cross the double digit mark for the 14th time this year and he is the second batsman in the world who has been out on a single digit score the most number of times this year
India’s second innings
After bowling out Australia in the first innings, the Indian team’s batting was very poor in the second innings. The opening pair of Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul failed and could not give the team a strong start. First Rahul was out, who was sent to the pavilion by Cummins on a score of seven runs. Then Boland gave India a double blow by dismissing Yashasvi (24) and Virat Kohli (11). Shubman Gill also could not convert the good start into a big innings and was bowled by Starc on a score of 28 runs. Captain Rohit Sharma’s poor form continued in the second innings as well, who returned to the pavilion after scoring six runs off Cummins’ ball. For Australia, all five wickets on the second day were taken by fast bowlers and the surrender of India’s top batsmen in front of them was clearly visible.

Hopes from Pant-Nitish
The Indian team now has hopes from Pant and Nitish who are standing at the crease. Amidst falling wickets, Rishabh Pant was the only one who showed fearlessness and tried to put pressure on the Australian bowlers by playing big shots continuously. Pant has hit five fours so far in his innings of 25 balls. If India has to take a big lead, then Pant and Nitish will have to make a charismatic partnership and take the team out of trouble.
