Kohli, Rohit & Gill Sweat It Out in Intense Nets Session Before Crucial 2nd ODI in Adelaide News24 –
Team India is currently in Australia for a three-match ODI series, and after a disappointing start in Perth, all eyes are now on the second game in Adelaide. Australia leads the series 1-0 after a 7-wicket win in the first ODI, and the pressure is now on Shubman Gill’s side to bounce back.
The first match saw a disappointing return for Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who were playing their first game since March. Rohit managed just 8 runs, while Kohli was dismissed for a duck. With India needing a win to stay alive in the series, both senior players will be looking to deliver a strong performance.

Back in the Nets, Eyes on Redemption
Upon reaching Adelaide, Rohit and Kohli wasted no time and hit the practice nets hard. The two star batters trained for nearly an hour, focusing on correcting the mistakes made in Perth. With the team’s chances hanging in the balance, their form could be the difference between staying in the fight or losing the series.
Must-Win for India
The Adelaide ODI, scheduled for October 23, is effectively a do-or-die clash for India. A win would level the series 1-1 and keep hopes alive for a comeback. A loss, however, would hand Australia the series and deal an early blow to Shubman Gill’s captaincy stint in ODIs.
With the pressure mounting and the series on the line, fans will hope to see vintage Rohit and Kohli step up in Adelaide.
