SYDNEY/MUMBAI: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Wednesday pushed back against reports of a rift in the Team India dressing room in Australia, but said that the performances of all players was being analysed closely with the team trailing 1-2 going into the final Test. This, officials in the board stressed, included senior players such as skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, and even the team's coach Gautam Gambhir.
To be sure, a win in Sydney will bring India back on level terms and allow them to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy as the current holders — and a lot of the intrigue and criticism may end if that happens.
"The team is together, and of course there is no rift," a top BCCI official told HT on condition of anonymity. "We are looking at all the performances — of the young players, the seniors, and the head coach."
