Ishant, Aaron arrived late in Brisbaine

Indian pacers Ishant Sharma and Varun Aaron arrived late at the Gabba on the fourth morning of the second Test against Australia even as their teammates were dramatically collapsing out in the middle, according to a report. A report in the ‘Herald Sun’ claimed that Ishant and Aaron were among those who reached the Gabba late on the fourth morning on what proved to be the final day of the Test, which India lost by four wickets to concede a 0-2 lead to the Australians in the four-match series.

“It’s now emerged there were Indian lower order players not even at the ground when wickets started falling, only adding to the shambolic nature of proceedings for India as they desperately tried to stem the tide,” the report mentioned.

“It’s understood the most recognisable bowler in the team, Sharma was one of those players who arrived late, along with fellow quick Aaron,” it added.
