Rohit Sharma Angry Reaction Over Yashasvi Jaiswal Catch Drop: India vs Australia: Marnus Labuschagne’s half-century in the second innings of the fourth Test proved to be a headache for Team India. Due to this innings of Labuschagne, the Kangaroo team managed to take its total lead beyond 250 runs. Actually, the Indian team had got a golden opportunity to prevent Labuschagne from becoming a threat to them, but Yashasvi Jaiswal had dropped an easy catch, on which captain Rohit Sharma angrily hit his hand very hard.
This is the case of the 40th over of Australia’s second innings when Akashdeep was bowling. Akashdeep bowled the ball on good length which was in the line of off stump. As soon as Labuschagne hit the bat, the ball went to Yashasvi Jaiswal in the slips, but he dropped the catch. Since Labuschagne was taking Team India away from victory at that time, captain Rohit shook his hand very angrily. Rohit’s anger was justified because Labuschagne then added 25 more runs in his innings. Due to his inning of 70 runs, Australia managed to get a lead of more than 250 runs.

In his 8 years of captaincy, I have never seen Virat Kohli react like this. This is why Rohit still prays to be 0.1% as good of a leader as Virat. pic.twitter.com/3vLmpOfoB3

The fourth day in the Melbourne Test was not good for Yashasvi Jaiswal from fielding point of view. Dropping the catch of Labuschagne was not the first mistake made by Jaiswal on the fourth day. Earlier, he had dropped the catch of Usman Khawaja at the beginning of the day. At that time Jasprit Bumrah was bowling, but Jaiswal could not take an easy catch while standing in the leg gully position. The good thing is that Khawaja got out after scoring 21 runs. Let us remind you that on the fourth day, India was all out on the score of 369 in the first innings, due to which Australia took a lead of 105 runs in the first innings.
