NEW DELHI: Former Australian opener Matthew Hayden expressed surprise at Rohit Sharma's bold decision to bowl first on the opening day of the Gabba Test since the surface was more suited for batting.
The Indian skipper's unexpected move caught many off guard, including Hayden, who remarked, that the pitch conditions in Brisbane were friendly to the batters and expects it to break after the first couple of days, and then it can trouble the batting unit.
