Two balls later, Dhoni came up to the stumps with Rohit yet to get off the mark. Rohit attempted a lap shot off Chahar and only succeed in managing a top edge which was easily pouched by Ravindra Jadeja at gully.  

Rohit has managed ony 184 runs from 10 innings at an average of 18.4. The right-hander has only one fifty to his credit this season.
