India's Rohit denies 'mental scars' from big Adelaide defeat

ADELAIDE, DEC 8: Skipper Rohit Sharma vowed that India will rebound against Australia in Brisbane and refuses to believe their heavy defeat in the second Test on Sunday will leave a mental "scar".

The hosts won the day-nighter in Adelaide by 10 wickets to level the series 1-1 and with less than a week before they meet again at the Gabba, India are racing against the clock to fix what went wrong.

Rohit attributed the demoralising loss to sub-standard batting, but brushed off the scale of the defeat.
"We didn't play well enough. So it's important in this short time that we have before the next Test match just to figure out certain things.

"You know, if you want to bat how we want to bat, and if you want to bowl, what lines and what lengths and what kind of fields placement we need to have.    —AFP
