Australia were wrong to say that they have learned to play the Indian spinners well and can show how it is. Australia made a mistake in the second innings in front of the Indian bowlers who bowled in the spirit that we will not allow anyone to restrict us on our soil, and the Kangaroos lost when the combination of Jadeja and Ashwin came down like a silver bullet on Australia, who came out to set a big target after overcoming the lead of 223 runs raised by India. India won by an innings and 132 runs. Ashwin who took 5 wickets in the second innings, Jadeja and Shami who took two wickets each and Axer who took one wicket made the victory easy.
Rohit’s century was very crucial on a pitch where Australia’s batsmen really struggled. The decisions taken by Rohit in captaincy also deserve applause, but this is what Rohit said about the challenges he faced in the second innings.
Rohit Sharma said, “Jadeja is waiting for the magic number of 250 with 249 wickets, he was asking me for the ball and Ashwin was waiting for the fifth wicket with 4 wickets in the innings at that time. He was asking me for the ball – that’s the challenge I face, these players know milestones well
Rohit Sharma said, “Managing 3 spinners is the biggest challenge. The spinners are getting good help too, all 3 are asking me for the ball. It was difficult to manage (laughs)”.
