Rediff.com14 Jan 2016

Rohit Sharma's brilliant hundred was certainly one of the positives in India's five wicket defeat in the first ODI against Australia but one of the worrying factor according to the in-form opener is not picking up wickets in the middle overs. India had Australia down at 21 for two but George Bailey and Steve Smith added 242 runs for the third wicket en route a comfortable win for the hosts. "There were a lot of positives to be taken from that game especially scoring 300 runs in Perth. "Losing is not a positive but we did whatever we could. And also the fact that Australia batted very well," Rohit said ahead of the second ODI at Gabba on Friday.
