On Friday, India opener Rohit Sharma scored a superb 59 in the third Test at Headingley, Leeds. India is still behind by 139 runs, according to Rohit, and he believes India is well behind the game. He also thought the 82-run stand between him and Cheteshwar Pujara was significant, to balance the early loss of KL Rahul. After Day 3, Rohit remarked, "We are very much behind in the game, but to come out and put that combination together was really vital for us as a batting unit."
Admitting that India did not bat well in the first essay, Rohit feels it is a good opportunity to correct that on Day 4 of the ongoing Test at Leeds. "We didn't bat that well in the first innings. It wasn't a 78 all-out pitch. We batted poorly, and we have a great opportunity tomorrow to correct our mistakes," he added.
Rahul fell for eight runs early in the innings, needing 354 to force England to bat again. At the second slip, Jonny Bairstow struck with a one-handed screamer to dismiss the Indian opener. On Day 3, Rohit was the second to go, as he was removed early after tea. He was caught leg before wicket by Ollie Robinson. Despite India's strong performance on Day 3, it's an uphill battle. Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara will be hoping to keep up the good work on Saturday. The first hour would be significant since it would provide the bowlers with some support.
