India couldn’t have begun their tour of Australia in a more impressive manner. The 295-run victory in Perth sparked India’s hopes of reversing their fortunes following the disastrous home series against New Zealand. However, following the series opener at Optus Stadium, they have faced increased pressure as leaks from the dressing room and other controversies have severely impacted them.

Prior to the New Year’s Test, commencing Friday, January 3 at the Sydney Cricket Ground, significant chaos has erupted. Beyond the on-field narrative, it’s the off-field events that appeared to have driven India into a trap, a confusion from which they lack sufficient time to escape. For those unfamiliar, any outcome other than a victory would eliminate India from contention for a place in the final of the WTC.

What’ next is important to see whether India could manage something at Sydney and keep a place in the WTC. However, there are other questions to be answered?

Is it the End of the road for Rohit?

It goes without saying that Rohit Sharma has experienced significant pressure in recent months. He faced intense criticism following India’s defeat to the Black Caps. He has had the opportunity to make reparations in Australia, but instead he has continued to spiral downward. As both captain and batter, the Indian leader faces pressure to demonstrate his worth as time is limited for him.

Following the 2–0 series victory against Najmul Shanto’s Bangladesh, Rohit has not secured a Test win in six matches, suffering defeats in five. In the current Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the 37-year-old has achieved an astonishing average of 6.20, not surpassing single digits in four out of five innings. It appears that the quicksand of pressure is gradually, yet inevitably, pulling Rohit’s career towards its demise.

Is everything right in the dressing room?

As if the defeats in Adelaide and Melbourne weren’t sufficient, India faced reports suggesting that head coach Gautam Gambhir unleashed a tirade on the Indian cricketers in the dressing room, criticizing them for prioritizing personal ambitions over the team’s requirements. A report in The Indian Express highlighted how Gambhir criticized the players’ approach.

Reports indicated that in Rohit’s absence, some players openly sought the captaincy, asserting that India required a remarkable performance on the tour. A senior member allegedly presented himself as ‘Mr. Fix-It’, claiming that the younger team members lack the necessary skills to lead the group. Additionally, it was reported that decisions were not reached by unanimous agreement.

The reports were not well received by ex-cricketers Irfan Pathan and Shreevats Goswami. Pathan, the Indian hero in the 72-run win at the 2007 Perth Test, stated that details from the dressing room are confidential and should not be disclosed to the media. Goswami, a member of India’s 2007 Under-19 World Cup champion team, stated that it’s “simply unacceptable”.
