India vs Australia: Rohit Sharma Reflects on India’s Mental Strength Ahead of Long-Awaited Day-Night Test
Ahead of India's Day-Night Test against Australia in Adelaide, Rohit Sharma emphasized the team's mental strength, stating that adapting to the Pink Ball won't be an issue. Despite a tough past performance in a similar Test, he remains focused on the present and believes that if all players contribute, the result could be in their favor.
With the India vs Australia 2nd Test coming up for the fans, Rohit Sharma addressed concerns about India’s adaptation to the Day-Night Test format. Despite India’s heavy defeat in their previous Day-Night encounter against Australia, where they were dismissed for just 36 runs in the second innings, Rohit remained confident.
He emphasized the team’s mental strength, stating that adaptation would not be a problem for them. The captain noted that the team had shown resilience during the first Test in Perth, even with key players missing, and he expects the same determination in the upcoming match. He said:
We are mentally strong and for us, adaptation is not a problem. For us, it is simple that we try to give our best in difficult situations. You will not get easy things at the highest level of cricket. Even in Perth, we did not have all of our players. Everybody kept their head down and played their part and the result was in our favour. We have to look at this Test match in the same way.
Rohit highlighted the importance of focusing on the present, not past performances, stressing that each day in cricket is a fresh challenge. He confirmed that he would be batting in the middle order for the match. With India leading 1-0 in the series, Rohit remains optimistic about continuing their momentum and securing a positive result in the Adelaide Test.
