"Started At The Top...": Ex-Australia Star Bluntly Blames Rohit Sharma For India's Struggles

Former Australian cricketer Simon Katich slammed Indian skipper Rohit Sharma for his poor captaincy on day two of the fourth Test against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), saying that India is being "bullied" by the Aussies. If the first day of the Test match saw Australia make 300-plus runs, the Indian bowlers still showed a fight by taking six wickets, with four of them coming in the last session. The day two first session was extremely poor for the Indian team as Steve Smith and skipper Pat Cummins were all over Indian bowlers, even Jasprit Bumrah, as they scored at a run rate above five. While Smith reached a brilliant 34th Test ton, a useful 49 from Cummins took Australia to 454/7 at the end of session one.
