The duo successfully navigated through the initial hour of play, emphasizing the value of preserving their wickets as they added 40 runs for the first wicket in 17.3 overs. However, Rohit\u2019s resilience came to an end through a soft dismissal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"rohit-sharma-falls-prey-to-debutant-shoaib-bashir\">Rohit Sharma falls prey to debutant Shoaib Bashir<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bashir, drafted into the playing XI as a replacement for the injured&nbsp;<strong>Jack Leach<\/strong>, made an impact in the 12th over after&nbsp;<strong>Joe Root<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>James Anderson<\/strong>&nbsp;initiated the proceedings with the new ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In only his fourth over, Bashir\u2019s off-break deceived the well-settled Rohit. Bashir maintained a tight line against the right-handed batter, affording him minimal room to maneuver. Rohit, attempting a glance against the turning ball, ended up guiding it straight into the hands of leg slip fielder<strong>\u00a0Ollie Pope<\/strong>. Rohit departed for 14 runs off 41 deliveries, with no boundaries in his innings, restrained by Anderson and the finger spinners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"715\" height=\"403\" src=\"https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/gettyimages-1296623548-1-1613015479-1613151819.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4811\" srcset=\"https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/gettyimages-1296623548-1-1613015479-1613151819.jpg 715w, https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/gettyimages-1296623548-1-1613015479-1613151819-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/totalcric.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/gettyimages-1296623548-1-1613015479-1613151819-360x203.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 715px) 100vw, 715px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ALSO READ: <a href=\"https:\/\/totalcric.com\/prashant-vaidya-arrested-in-a-cheque-bouncing-case\/\">Sachin Tendulkar\u2019s former teammate Prashant Vaidya arrested in a cheque bouncing case<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"rohits-vishakhapatnam-legacy-takes-a-hit\">Rohit\u2019s Vishakhapatnam legacy takes a hit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rohit has consistently demonstrated an impressive track record in Vishakhapatnam across different formats. This venue holds particular significance as it witnessed his initiation as an opener in red-ball cricket. In the 2019 Test against&nbsp;<strong>South Africa<\/strong>&nbsp;at this ground, Rohit registered twin centuries, solidifying his position in the longest format of the game. Nevertheless, the streak of scoring a second consecutive hundred at this venue concluded today with his dismissal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Shubman Gill departing after a brisk 34, Team India is in a rebuilding phase, currently positioned at 103\/2 after 31 overs, with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shreyas Iyer at the crease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"heres-how-twitter-reacted\">Here\u2019s how Twitter reacted:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-container\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Rohit was playing the young newbi spinners  like they were lobbing grenades at him. <br><br>Trying to bat like Pujara.
