Rohit Sharma gives flawless reply after Australian Media's Accusation on Nagpur pitch -

Even before the India-Australia Border-Gavaskar Trophy match has started, claims of “doctoring” the Nagpur surface, where the first Test is scheduled, have been made. Some journalists and former cricketers from Australia believe that India is preparing the pitch differently in each part.

Indian Captain Rohit Sharma responded flawlessly when asked about it during the news conference on Wednesday. On the eve of the first Test, Rohit told reporters in Nagpur that the match itself should take precedence over the field.

Rohit Sharma said – "We want to concentrate on the game. All 22 cricketers playing tommorow are quality cricket and they have to play good cricket". (On Australia media speaking about Nagpur pitch)

Just concentrate on the cricket, not the field. The 22 people there are all good players, after all,” Rohit stated in answer to the query. Rohit acknowledged that the surface of the pitch will be helpful to spinners when speaking of it. Therefore, he emphasised the value of rotating strike.

“It’s critical to devise a strategy and find a solution. Everybody uses a different approach. Some prefer to sweep, while others want to reverse or strike the bowler. You may need to counterattack in addition to rotating your strikes.

Of course, the captains would experiment and switch bowlers and grounds. Therefore, you must plan and play properly,” he continued.

Speaking about the highly anticipated series, Rohit acknowledged that defeating Australia in the 4-match Test assignment will be difficult, but India has made the necessary preparations to ensure a successful outcome.

In the BGT, we have four strong test matches to play, and we would like to take the series. We must be prepared for the tough nature of the series. The secret is to plan ahead. He said, “If you prepare well, you get results.
