Shastri suggests Rohit to play the aggressor at No 6
Rohit Sharma’s decision to bat in the middle order in the Adelaide and Brisbane Tests, has failed to yield the desired results for the Indian team in the Border-Gavaskar series so far.
Team India have already won the ongoing three-match T20 International series against West Indies, with a 2-0 lead. When the Rohit Sharma-led side will take on a struggling West Indies on Sunday, 11th November, they will only aim for a clean sweep.
The final match of the ongoing T20I series will be played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The match will start at 7 pm and the toss will take place at 6:30 pm.

On Sunday, when both the team will face each other, Chennai will miss their favourite star and CSK skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni. The wicket-keeper batsman MS Dhoni has been dropped from the Indian side for the ongoing T20I series and upcoming three-match T20I series against Australia later this month.

Having already clinched the series, the team management had decided to rest some of the key bowlers, such as Umesh Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah and chinaman Kuldeep Yadav, in the last match.
