[Watch] Rohit Sharma caught in the slips for 3 in a warm-up game on BGT 2024-25 return

Team India skipper Rohit Sharma was dismissed for three in the ongoing pink-ball practice game against Australian Prime Ministers XI at the Manuka Oval, Canberra on Sunday (December 1). Rohit Sharma will lead the Indian team that plays the second Test against Australia at the Adelaide Oval on December 6.

Rohit surprised everyone watching the game when he walked out to bat following KL Rahul's decision to retire out of the game. He walked in at four, a position above where he was listed to bat and had a nervous first couple of deliveries. Rohit got off the mark on the eighth delivery he faced and then added a brace as well, looking in good touch.

However, on the third ball of the 21st over, Rohit looked to defend one delivery on the fourth stump. The ball did a bit off the surface and took the outside edge, which landed straight into the hands of Oliver Davies in the slips, ending his short stay in the middle.

Take a look at the dismissal below:

Rohit was dismissed for three runs off 11 deliveries. He was replaced by Nitish Kumar Reddy in the middle.
