    IND vs AUS, Live: Here’s what Rohit Sharma said at the toss

    Pitch has been under the covers for a long time, we got to bat well and see where we are. Every game you play for India is a pressure game, so you got to stay calm and make the right decision. We have tried to remain calm in the last few ODI series we have played. Two changes. Ishan misses out, I am back for him, Shardul misses out and Axar is in. If we win the toss, I thought we could do something with three spinners if we bowl first.

  • 13:07 (IST)

    IND vs AUS, Live: Here’s what Steve Smith said at the toss
