On Day 4 in Perth, KL, Rohit Sharma walks into the Indian dressing room. Rahul reveals the India XI's future.

On the fourth day of the Perth Test, Rohit Sharma was spotted inside the Indian dressing room.

India is poised to grab a 1-0 lead in the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy by defeating Australia in a historic and iconic encounter at the Optus Stadium in Perth. But right-handed batsman KL Rahul has now offered his opinion on the matter, stating that the visitors would have a selection dilemma for the day-night Adelaide Test. After giving birth to his second kid with wife Ritika Sajdeh, captain Rohit Sharma skipped the Perth Test. On Day 4, he was spotted in the Indian dressing room.

Shubman was hurt. Additionally, Gill should recuperate in time to play in Adelaide's pink ball Test. Gill had previously fractured his left thumb in Perth during the match simulation versus India A.

As an opener, KL Rahul, who was under pressure prior to the Perth Test, scored 26 and 77 runs. With flawless play off the front foot and backfoot, the right-handed hitter appeared to be in good form. But whether he performs in Adelaide is a topic that begs more questions.

KL Rahul was questioned prior to the start of Day 4 in Perth about what will happen when Rohit Sharma returns and if he sees a spot for himself in the starting lineup come December 6.

"He will undoubtedly enter. We will need to wait and find out. The coach and the captain must have it worked out in their minds. In an interview with Channel 7, KL Rahul stated, "We are focused on taking seven wickets today and thinking about Adelaide when the time comes."

Get an opportunity in Adelaide, maybe," he continued.

In Perth, Rohit Sharma lands

After arriving in Perth on Sunday, India skipper Rohit Sharma has joined the Indian team at the Optus Stadium.

Rohit Sharma was spotted sitting in the locker room with head coach Gautam Gambhir on Monday morning.

Jasprit Bumrah is leading Team India in Perth in Rohit's absence.

Speaking of Perth, having set a goal of 534, the visitors are firmly in control. Virat Kohli (100*) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (161) both crushed hundreds in the second innings to further inflict suffering on Australia.

In the second innings, KL Rahul contributed as well with a useful knock of 77. India ultimately declared their second innings at 487/6, posing a formidable challenge to Australia's 534-run chase.
