India's captain, Rohit Sharma, showcased resilience on Day 1 of the third Test against England in Rajkot, scoring a vital half-century after the top-order collapse. Despite losing three early wickets to Mark Wood and Tom Hartley, Sharma anchored the innings, easing pressure on the batting side. His innings, accompanied by a steady partnership with Ravindra Jadeja, steadied India to 93 for 3 at lunch. Sharma's fifty, ending a six-month drought, signifies a crucial comeback and boosts confidence for the team amidst concerns over his form.
