Star India batter Virat Kohli and Captain Rohit Sharma were seen practicing at the centre pitch of the WACA Stadium after the practice match against Western Australia XI.
The coaching staff was seen giving throw-downs to both the batters, who did not bat in the practice game. Kohli did not bat in both practice games but was seen fielding in the second match.
The crowd was seen hanging around the boundary lines in large numbers even after the practice match was over, to see Kohli and Rohit bat.
Rohit Sharma, on the contrary, was dismissed cheaply in the first match (for 3) and decided to not bat in the second match.
India won the first match on Monday but lost the second practice match on Thursday by 36 runs.
No batter apart from KL Rahul (74 off 55) could stay longer on the crease. Hardik Pandya with a cameo of 17 runs from nine balls was the next-best scorer for India.
