After Australia lost against India in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, their ace pacer Josh Hazlewood publicly criticized the batting performance of his team. This has sparked rumors about potential breaking within the team.
These speculations got further fueled by the remarks of Sunil Gavaskar where he stated that Hazlewood might have been dropped from the second Test due to his comments and not because of an actual injury.
With these ongoing rumors, Indian captain Rohit Sharma spoke about this situation. Though he acknowledged the challenges of adapting to different playing conditions, Rohit expressed how he is confident in the mental strength of his team, and how the team is always prepared to face any situations.
Rohit was speaking to the press on the eve of the second Test in Adelaide when he got asked about the rumored break within the Australian team. Rohit stated that he was not aware of any such issues within the Australian camp.
“I seriously have no idea about it, what’s happening in their dressing room,” Rohit said.
Australia’s playing XI against India in Adelaide Test:
Pat Cummins (c), Scott Boland, Alex Carey (wk), Travis Head, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Mitch Marsh, Nathan McSweeney, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc
