Rohit Sharma's Fifty Helps India

India opted to bat in the third Test at Rajkot, and it was a challenging start. After winning the toss on a flat pitch, India struggled as Mark Wood dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill in quick succession. Rajat Patidar added to the woes, chipping a catch to short cover.

With the scoreboard at 33/3, the pressure was palpable. Captain Rohit Sharma, however, played a crucial role in stabilizing the innings, reaching an unbeaten 52 by Lunch on the first day. Despite surviving some close calls, including a missed slip catch by Joe Root and an overturned LBW decision, Rohit showcased calculated aggression.

Promoted to No. 5, Ravindra Jadeja joined Rohit, and their left-right combination proved effective with a 60-run partnership. Rohit's innings, marked by some well-timed boundaries, steered India to a more respectable position at Lunch.

Brief Scores: India 93/3 (Rohit Sharma 52; Mark Wood 2-26) vs England.
