India vs Australia: 'He must be absolutely disgusted', Kartik, Shastri react to Rohit's dismissal in Ahmedabad

With the fourth Test between India and Australia underway at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad, captain Rohit Sharma was the first wicket to fall on Day 3. He was dismissed for 35 in the first innings. Sharma along with Shubman Gill gave India a good start in reply to Australia’s mammoth 480, with the Indian skipper hitting three boundaries and a maximum. However, it was spinner Matthew Kuhnemann who stopped India’s progress by getting the prized scalp of Rohit. The India captain while trying to hit a backfoot punch off the left-arm spinner was out caught at short cover. While the India skipper seemed visibly annoyed by his dismissal, the Aussies broke into celebration after separating the opening pair. Commentators were also taken aback by Sharma’s dismissal. While Ravi Shastri said, “That’s soft. Would you believe it? He has hit it straight to short extra cover. He will be kicking himself. He was batting so beautifully”, Gavaskar quipped that “the ball might have stopped a little bit.” Murali Kartik, while commenting on the same noted how Rohit was looking “extremely comfortable” on the ground but must be “absolutely disgusted with himself” following the catch out.
