Chances of Rohit Sharma traveling to Australia in time to play the first Test at Perth are very bright
With the first Test against the Australia National Cricket Team still a week away and Rohit Sharma being blessed with a second child, the reports claimed that his chances of traveling to Australia in time to play the first Test are very bright. The match is scheduled to take place from 22nd November.
If Rohit Sharma becomes available for the first Test against the Australia National Cricket Team, it will be a massive boost for the India National Cricket Team. His presence in the team surely will boost his confidence as he will be there as a leader as well as the senior batter in the team full of youngsters.
Although Rohit hasn't been in the best form, him being available for the team will be crucial for the team's chances. The kind of ability that he possesses and the leadership qualities that he has give India National Cricket a fair chance to win the first game in Perth.
KL Rahul or Abhimanyu Easwaran will be opening the innings alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal if Rohit Sharma misses first Test against Australia

India National Cricket Team has been under match simulation at the WACA Stadium in Perth. During that KL Rahul came to open the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal. He batted for a few overs before getting injured by a rising delivery from paceman Prasidh Krishna. After receiving treatment in the middle, Rahul walked off but the injury is said to be not serious.
