India vs Australia: Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have returned to international cricket from Perth ODI.

These two legends of Indian cricket played their last international match in March this year. However, with this comeback, something happened to him, which was seen happening after 3276 days. Actually, after 9 years both these players will be seen playing under the captaincy of a different captain. Last time this was seen 3276 days ago i.e. on 29 October 2016.

What happened to Rohit-Virat after 3276 days?

When India played and won the Champions Trophy this March, Rohit Sharma was the ODI captain. But, in the subsequent ODI series against Australia, the captain of the Indian team has changed.

Now Shubman Gill has replaced Rohit Sharma.

On 29 October 2016, Rohit-Virat played an ODI match against New Zealand under the captaincy of MS Dhoni. Now this has happened after 3276 days, when both of them are playing under the captaincy of a different captain. Meaning in an ODI match in which neither of them is the captain.

Returned to international cricket but…

Rohit-Virat are returning to international cricket from Perth ODI against Australia, but both of them face big challenges. Both these players are fit but have come to play against Australia without any match practice.

In such a situation, everyone's eyes are on how his performance is.

You will perform better by capitalizing on your experience!

However, both Rohit and Virat have good experience of playing in Australia. Both of them have also scored a lot of runs there. Be it playing against Australia or in Australia, Rohit-Virat have been batting most of the times. In such a situation, there is definitely hope that with their experience, both these matches can be seen to make up for the lack of practice.

India is playing its 100th ODI in Australia, with which Rohit Sharma will become the 5th Indian to play 500 international matches.
