Initially, there were reports that Rohit Sharma would not play in the first test match of the IND vs AUS series due to personal reasons. However, after the birth of his child, it is almost certain that he will play in the Perth Test.

Team India’s ODI and Test captain, Rohit Sharma, became a father for the second time on Friday, 15 November. His wife, Ritika Sajdeh, gave birth to a baby boy. It was earlier anticipated that the arrival of the little one would coincide with the Perth Test. This led to speculation that Rohit might miss the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. However, now that Samaira has been blessed with a younger brother earlier than expected, it is believed that the Hitman could play the opening Test against Australia.
