The Indian captain recently said the team don't want anyone to hear the conversations during the net sessions. Rohit held a press conference after a big defeat against Australia in the Adelaide day-night test match.

During the press conference, a journalist asked about the team's decision on crowds during practice sessions.

 When the Journalists asked this question, someone not in front of the camera asked the journalist to ask the questions only related to the test match, to which Rohit responded, “No, let me say it.” 

Rohit answered that it was the first time he had seen such a large crowd during any net session. He added that practice sessions are very private, and we don't want anyone to hear those conversations. In a light-hearted way, he also said that there are five days of games spectators can come and watch. He also mentioned that the crowd was very close to the practice ground.

"Net sessions are usually very private, and this was the first time I had seen so many people during the nets. When you're training or practising, many conversations take place, which are very private. We don’t want anyone to hear them—it's as simple as that.

There was a lot of planning and discussion involved, and the crowd at the practice facility was very close to us. There are five days of Test cricket for fans to come and watch us play.”

What happened in the open net session 

In a net session before the Adelaide test on December 3, the crowd was allowed to see the players during the practice, but what happened next was not acceptable to players; an overwhelming number crowd of more than 3000 came to watch the Indian players during the session. Inappropriate comment was passed from the crowd to the player who are missing the ball or getting out, especially batter Virat Kohli and Shubhman gill, the crowd asked players to hit sixes and boundaries. The situation went out of control and was unmanageable.

After the incident, the BCCI promptly took action and turned all the upcoming public practice sessions in Australia into private sessions, allowing no spectators. Access is restricted to a few people and journalists.

One BCCI official stated that “the situation had become unmanageable, with insensitive remarks making it impossible for players to prepare effectively.”

After the session in the Adelaide test, India lost the test match by ten wickets in Australia, levelling the series at one all.
