Ind Vs Nz: The two biggest pillars of Team India’s batting may soon retire from the biggest format of cricket after the T20 format. The next 6 months are going to be very important for both of them. If both of them are not able to perform well then they can also retire from Test to give chance to new players.
Team India’s unbeaten record in Test broken
Both these players have been in poor form for some time now, as a result of which Team India’s 12-year long unbeaten record at home has also been destroyed. New Zealand has ended India’s domestic dominance. The biggest reason for which is India’s main batsmen not scoring runs.
Rohit’s performance is ordinary
If we look at Rohit Sharma’s statistics for the next year, Rohit has scored 559 runs in 19 innings of 11 matches played this year at an average of 31, which includes 2 centuries and 2 half-centuries. During this period, Rohit’s highest score has been 132 runs. Talking about this home season, Rohit has scored 104 runs in 8 innings of 4 matches at an average of around 12.
Virat’s bad form continues
Whereas Virat Kohli’s form has also been ordinary in Tests. This year, Virat has scored 245 runs in 10 innings of 6 matches at an average of 27. Which includes 1 half-century. During this period, Virat’s highest score has been 70 runs. If we look at their statistics in this home season, their performance has been even worse. Virat has scored 177 runs in 8 innings of 4 test matches at an average of 22.
If both of them are not able to perform well in the Border Gavaskar Trophy to be held in Australia, then they can retire from the Test and announce their retirement to give a chance to new players for the next World Test Championship cycle.
Virat’s performance in Australia has been good while Rohit has performed only average in Australia. This is the reason why this series is going to be very important for both of them.
