Shameful performance of Rohit-Virat
Cricket world stars Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have disappointed a lot in the last few matches. Both Rohit and Virat are the pillars of the Indian team, on whom Team India believes that both have the ability to convert defeat into victory for the team, but both have been disappointing in the last few series.
If we talk about Virat Kohli, his bat has been silent in the last three series played. He has just played series against Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and New Zealand. In which he has played only innings of 1, 0 and 70, 47 and 29, 6 and 17, 14, 20 runs. Also, if we look at Rohit’s figures, he has played innings of 0, 2 and 52, 23 and 8, 6 and 5, 35, 64 runs.
Rohit-Kohli will not play Champions Trophy
The Champions Trophy is to be hosted by Pakistan in the coming year 2025, for which all the teams have started their preparations in full swing. But even before that, the two biggest players of the team are not in form. Team India’s star players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are playing a Test series against New Zealand, in which the performance of both the players was poor. Due to which there is a question regarding his going to the Champions Trophy. There is a possibility that both the players may drop from the tournament.
