News India Live, Digital Desk: Indian Cricket Team: When there is a strong team like Australia, then preparation also has to be of the same level. And Indian team captain ‘Hitman’ Rohit Sharma understands this very well. The Border-Gavaskar Trophy to be held between India and Australia is not just a cricket series, but a battle for respect and the final of the World Test Championship. For this ordeal, Rohit Sharma has geared up and is making such preparations, which has become a topic of discussion.
‘Hitman’ is not just practicing, he is on a special mission
Usually players sweat at the nets, but this time Hitman has done something special in his preparation which shows his seriousness. This is not just a preparation to score runs, but a mission to destroy every weapon of Australia.
First Mission: Fitness and Agility
The first change that is visible in Rohit Sharma is his fitness. According to reports, Rohit has lost a lot of weight for this important series. In Test cricket you have to stay on the field for a long time, whether it is batting or fielding. This new, fit avatar of Rohit will help him play long innings and run fast between the wickets. He has understood that to defeat Australia, not only technology but also physical strength is equally important.
Second mission: ‘Break’ Australia’s biggest weapon
The biggest strength of the Australian team is their fast bowlers, and the most dangerous name among them is Mitchell Starc. Starc’s left-handed in-swingers have been a headache for the great right-handed batsmen of the world. This has been a perfect weapon for Starc against Rohit Sharma also.
But this time Rohit does not want to leave any stone unturned. He has made a special plan to face this challenge. In the nets, he is not playing the normal bowlers for hours, but especially those left-arm fast bowlers who can swing the ball inwards like Starc. He is facing the same angle and the same swing again and again so that when he faces Starc on the field, he is completely prepared.
This preparation shows how seriously Rohit Sharma is taking this series. He wants to come forward and lead the team not only as a batsman but also as a captain. From losing weight to defeating the enemy’s most dangerous bowler, Rohit’s hard work shows that this time the road for Australia is not going to be easy.
