During an interview at Star Sports, commentator Mark Nicholas asked Ravi Shastri about whether this is the end of the road for Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. His response to the question really shocked cricket fans and critics around the globe.
Ravi Shastri believes that Virat Kohli may not be scoring that much runs but he has potential still left. According to him, Virat may play test cricket for almost 3-4 more years.
However, about Rohit Sharma, he said that this might be the end for him. Given his performance for some time, it seems like his call to end the game and take retirement.
The way Rohit is playing these test matches, he is struggling a lot with the bat. His batting doesn’t seem sound anymore, the way it used to be in the past.
The truth is – it is not just Rohit who is struggling but Virat’s performance in against Australia is also nothing else than pure struggle.
Their wickets falling early brought the team into a significant danger during the test match against Australia. However, Sharma’s form in BGT has been inconsistent throughout – shoving all the criticism towards his side.
People are speculating that Rohit might retire after BGT considering the fact that his form is very bad and his attitude has affected the team’s performance.
The last match of BGT can be a tie or India might also win. In case India loses, we will see Australia in the final of test championship against South Africa.
While the speculations around Rohit’s retirement continue to grow, fans are not very much ready to say goodbye to another cricketing legend very soon.
With Ravichandra Ashwin also announcing his retirement in the middle of the series, Indian cricket fans are already disheartened and we can only hope they do not get another sad news.
