Australian captain Pat Cummins once again ended the innings of Indian captain Rohit Sharma by dismissing him. By doing this, Cummins has made a world record in his name, where he has now become the captain to dismiss the opposition captain the most number of times in a Test match. Cummins has dismissed Rohit six times so far. Cummins had dismissed Rohit in the first innings of this match also.
Cummins broke Richie-Imran’s record
Before Cummins, Richie Benaud had made the record by dismissing Ted Dexter five times. Pakistan’s Imran Khan had also made a similar record against Sunil Gavaskar, where the former captain had dismissed Gavaskar five times.
Rohit disappointed again
On the fifth day in Melbourne, India got the target of 340 runs from the Kangaroo team. It is not easy to achieve such a big target on the fifth day in any Test match. In the desire to win, India was hopeful that team captain Rohit would give a strong start to the team. However, this could not happen. The pair of Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal made a good start, where both the batsmen played cautiously and scored only 25 runs in 16 overs. However, after this, Rohit’s attention got distracted and in his desire to score runs, he played wrong shots.
The Indian innings faltered as soon as Rohit was out.
Cummins’ ball came in at an angle, which the Indian captain dodged and the ball went into the gully area. Mitchell Marsh posted here showed excellent reflexes and took a big catch without any mistake. After Rohit’s dismissal, India’s top order collapsed badly. Cummins sent KL Rahul to the pavilion without opening the account in the same over. After this, before the lunch break, Virat Kohli also started walking, due to which the team’s score became 33 runs for three wickets.
