Ahead of the Boxing Day Test, India skipper Rohit Sharma on Tuesday dismissed fears about the knee injury he suffered during practice, saying it was fine, while keeping the suspense over his batting position.
Rohit had got hit on the left knee during the training session at the MCG on Sunday and there was speculation about the seriousness of the injury.
"My knee is fine," said Rohit during a media interaction ahead of the fourth Border-Gavaskar Test here from December 26.
Rohit missed the opening Test Down Under to be with his family for the birth of his second child. He was expected to reclaim the opener's spot but KL Rahul's impressive 77 in India's win at Perth prompted a rejig of the batting order with the skipper moving down to No.6.
The change though has not been fruitful for Rohit as he has managed 10, 3 and 6 runs in the last three innings, while Rahul has encashed on the opportunity by notching up a fine 84 in the first innings at Brisbane in the third Test.
The skipper s

Now that the unparalleled pressure of being an Indian cricketer is off his back, R Ashwin visualises himself doing a lot more on the cricket field at least for the next few years.
The 38-year-old stunned the cricketing world by announcing his retirement following the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. He flew back home the following day and got an overwhelming reception from the people in his hometown Chennai.
In a chat with former England captains Michael Atherton and Nasser Hussain on Sky Sports, Ashwin revealed one of the reasons he retired in the middle of the series is that he did not get the same creative satisfaction out of his game.
"One line I have always said when people ask me 'what is next?' I have said the day I wake up and feel that creative side doesn't have a future or direction is when I would probably give it up.
"I certainly think that creative side did not have a lot of upside to explore. There are laboratories available in world cricket today. So I thoug
