India vs Australia - "Bowlers Weren't There": Rohit Sharma's Blunt Reply To Question On Mohali Loss

India lost the first T20I against Australia despite posting a mammoth total of 208 runs on the board and captain Rohit Sharma didn't mince any words when he was asked about the loss. Rohit put the blame squarely on India's pathetic bowling performance in the match. Experienced seam bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar conceded 52 runs in 4 overs, while Harshal Patel was taken for 49 runs in his full quota. Leg spinner Yuzvendra Chahal was hit for 42 in 3.2 overs and despite a heroic spell of 3/17 from Axar Patel, the Aussies beat India on canter eventually.
