Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma should retire if...: Former cricketer speaks on future of Ro-Ko ahead of Australia series
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are under the spotlight as they prepare for the high-stakes Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia which will bein November 22.
Former India pacer Karsan Ghavri, in an exclusive interview with TimesOfIndia.com, said that their future in Test cricket could hinge on their performances in the series.
“If they don’t perform in Australia, Virat and Rohit should retire,” Ghavri said. The former left-arm seamer noted that despite their legendary status and achievements, the team needs dependable run-scorers to compete at the highest level.
Kohli and Sharma’s recent form has been lackluster, leading to questions about their consistency. Notably, this year, Virat scored just 250 runs in 12 Test innings across six matches at an average of 22.72, with just one half-century and best score of 70. Meanwhile, Rohit has amassed588 runs in 11 Tests and 21 innings this year at a average of 29.40, with two centuries and two fifties and best score of 131.
The upcoming series, where India needs a 4-0 sweep to qualify for the World Test Championship final, will not only test team resilience but could redefine the roles of India’s most celebrated cricketers.
