Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma has confirmed that he will be batting in the middle order in the upcoming second Test against Australia, while KL Rahul will open the batting. This puts an end to speculation that Rohit would replace Rahul as opener after he missed the first Test due to family commitments. Meanwhile, Australia captain Pat Cummins has dismissed rumours of disharmony within the team following a comment made by Josh Hazlewood during the Perth Test.
