Skipper Rohit Sharma is all set to fly out to Australia in the coming days. He is expected to join the team in Perth on November 24, the third day of the first Test at Opus Stadium. His departure to Australia was delayed in view of the birth of his second child.
The Indian team left for Australia in three batches between November 10 and 11 but Rohit stayed back for the birth of his second child. Rohit was blessed with a baby boy on November 15 and since then his visit to Australia has been subject of speculation.
While some reports suggested that he would be in Perth much before the first Test, which starts on Friday (November 22) morning, it was always clear that he would delay his journey. Cricbuzz now can confirm that he has informed the concerned authorities in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) that he would join the squad on Sunday.
