SYDNEY:
Rohit was dropped after scoring only 31 runs in five innings as India look to draw the final test and retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, with pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah replacing him as captain in Sydney.
Rohit has only one fifty in his last 15 test innings, which include 10 single-digit scores, but the 37-year-old said he had confidence in himself to turn things around.
"This decision is not a retirement decision nor am I going to take myself out of the game," Rohit told Star Sports broadcaster on day two of the Sydney test.
