We wanted to try out bowlers and see if they can bowl four overs: Rohit

India captain Rohit Sharma on Sunday said the purpose of playing a second string attack in the third T20 International against England was to see “if they can bowl four overs”.

Having already sealed the series, India had made three changes to their bowling attack, bringing in Umran Malik, Avesh Khan and Ravi Bishnoi in place of the senior bowlers who were rested.

India lost the match by 17 runs but clinched the series 2-1, having won the first two matches.
