This morning, Indian captain Rohit Sharma had a disastrous outing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, as he was dismissed cheaply by his Australian counterpart Pat Cummins in the ongoing third Test at The Gabba in Brisbane. Batting at number six, Rohit could score only ten runs before Cummins got him out with a beauty around the fourth stump line. 

Rohit Sharma's Test Form

This was Rohit Sharma's third consecutive low score in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The Indian skipper, who missed the first Test due to the birth of his first child, had a miserable game in the Adelaide Test, managing only nine runs across two innings. Although he looked steadier in Brisbane, one false shot led to his downfall, resulting in his dismissal for 10.
