\u201cHe has obviously shown a lot of potential with the white ball and as I have said many times earlier, guys with potential will be given a decent run of games and enough chances in that particular slot. Of course, we have seen, and he knows that he needs to do better in this format of the game as well. Things are there in his mind as well. Surya has got out cheaply in the last two games and in the series before this too, but he needs a consistent 7 to 8 back-to-back games so that he feels more comfortable. Now that he has got into the team as a replacement for someone who has got injured, we, as a management, can\u2019t really look into the performances as such. Once you give a guy a consistent run and you know that the runs are not coming or he is not comfortable etc then we will start thinking about it but right now we haven\u2019t got to that stage,\u201d Rohit said at a post-match briefing here on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

However, Sunday turned out to be a disaster. \u201cIt has been a good ground for us but we didn\u2019t bat well today. We didn\u2019t apply ourselves. Even when you lose a couple of early wickets, it is important to create a partnership or two to get back into the game. I don\u2019t think we batted well enough and that was a failure from our side. When you have only 117 on the board, the batters have nothing to lose, and they try to swing the bat and get off to a good start. Once that happens, they keep putting the pressure on. At times, we have done that like in England when we had to chase 110 and we did it in 12 or 13 overs if I am not wrong. Today\u2019s failure was our batting,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Asked if the top order was a concern, he said: \u201cThis is just two games that the top order has not done too well. It has been literally on fire in the last six games we played. Lot of the top order batters have got big runs in the previous games. When we need to look into it, we will definitely do it but right now it’s not the time.\u201d<\/p>\n 1<\/span>\/11<\/p>\n Show Captions<\/p>\nFive-star Starc helps Australia down India, level series<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
