#3 Rohit Sharma addresses India's middle-order problems

Team India's stand-in captain Rohit Sharma spoke about India's middle-order prior to their first Asia Cup encounter against Honk Kong on September 18.

He said that their aim will be to identify players for the number four and six slot during the tournament.

"Lot of spots are up for grabs like Nos 3, 4 and 6. All these guys (Kedar, Manish, Rayudu) are eyeing for those slots. We want to give chances to as many guys for this particular series. In this tournament, we need to seal the batting slot Nos 4 and 6,"

Rohit also spoke about the two players making a comeback to the side - Ambati Rayudu and Kedar Jadhav.

"They are both important members of this team. Rayudu was originally part of England series and similarly Kedar before his injury. It was unfortunate that they couldn't play for some time and I am very happy that both are back in the team. I expect them to win matches for India," said Rayudu.
