WI vs IND 2nd ODI: Hardik Pandya explained why Rohit and Virat rested
We want to see how many runs we can score on this surface, which has some ups and downs. Rohit and Virat have been playing nonstop cricket, so they are taking a break. For the third ODI, they will come in fresh in the 3rd ODI. It is a good effort for the bowlers when you get someone out for 115. While our catching was outstanding, we can still work on certain things. We could have completed the last game (1st ODI) without losing 5 wickets. For Rohit and Virat, Sanju Samson and Axar Patel are brought in.
India won the first ODI by five wickets to go 1-0 up in the three-match series.
The final ODI of the series is slated at Taouba on Tuesday.
