Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli prep for Australia ODI series

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli practiced at the Perth Stadium on Friday ahead of India’s ODI series against Australia starting on October 19. Both players looked sharp, with Rohit working on his pull and flick shots, while Kohli focused on his cover drives and straight hits. The two shared a light moment, showing the strong team spirit.

This series marks the return of the duo to international cricket after more than seven months. Both retired from Test cricket earlier this year and will now focus on ODIs. Rohit and Kohli are expected to play key roles in India’s success.

Shubman Gill will lead India in the ODI series, marking the start of his leadership journey, with a T20I series to follow under Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy.
