On Thursday, March 9, the fourth and final Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2022-23 commenced, with Australia’s captain Steve Smith winning the toss and electing to bat first.
The decision proved to be a good one for the Australian team as they managed to score a considerable number of runs during the first two sessions of play.
Meanwhile, India was left to rue their missed opportunities, leaving their captain Rohit Sharma feeling frustrated and perplexed. Sharma’s on-field actions also drew some attention during the match. When the players took a drinks break, the India captain took a few sips of water, with Kuldeep Yadav providing the water bottles.
However, as the break was brief, Yadav was in a rush to leave the field and accidentally dropped the water bottle that Sharma had handed him. Yadav quickly retrieved the bottle from the ground and left the field.
Rohit’s actions also garnered some notice when he appeared to threaten Yadav with a slap for dropping the water bottle. However, it was clear that the exchange was lighthearted, as both players were seen smiling and there was no actual animosity between them.
