According to cricbuzz report, Rohit has informed the concerned authorities in BCCI that he would join the Indian team in Perth on November 24.
The Indian team departed for Australia in three batches between November 10 and 11, but Rohit stayed back in India to be with his family. He was blessed with a baby boy on November 15, sparking speculation about his travel plans to Australia.
While earlier reports suggested he might reach Perth ahead of the first Test, which begins on Friday, November 22, it was always likely that he would delay his journey.
