This truth about Rohit-Virat will shock you, they could not give this happiness to the fan

Indian Cricket Team: The Indian cricket team has left for Australia tour, where the team has to play an important series of 5 Test matches under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. After the defeat against New Zealand in the last Test series, this tour has become very important for the Indian team. The team's eyes will be especially on its two biggest batsmen - Virat Kohli and captain Rohit Sharma, whose recent form has put the team in worry. Apart from this, another surprising fact is that these two legendary batsmen have not been able to make a single century partnership in Test cricket for the last seven years.

Kohli and Rohit: The main pillars of the team for a long time

Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have been important players of the Indian team for the last decade. Both have won Team India many times with their partnerships in ODIs and T20s. But in Test cricket, both of them have failed to make a big partnership together so far. Especially in the last seven years, there has not been a single century partnership between these two in Tests, which is a matter of concern. Both have performed brilliantly in different innings, but have failed to make a strong partnership by staying together at the crease.

Standard of partnership in the last seven years

If we look at the figures, since January 1, 2018, Kohli and Rohit have batted together in 12 innings in 34 Test matches. In these 12 innings, there has not been a century partnership between the two even once. Even the fifty partnership happened only once, which ended at 64 runs. The performance of the partnership of both in these innings has been like this: 32, 25, 23, 1, 0, 64, 1, 17, 16, 2, 18, 23 runs. These figures show that there is a lack of better coordination between the two.

Will the magic of both be seen in Australia?

However, it is not that Kohli and Rohit have never made a big partnership in Test cricket. Before 2018, both of them had made century partnerships thrice and half-century partnerships four times. These partnerships had pulled the Indian team out of difficult situations many times. Since Rohit's Test debut, the two have batted together a total of 26 times and have added 999 runs at an average of 39.

This tour of Australia is a golden opportunity for the Indian team, where both the players can return to their colors. Scoring runs on the difficult pitches of Australia has always been challenging, but if Kohli and Rohit make some big partnerships in this tour, it will not only strengthen the position of the Indian team but it will also be a happy occasion for the fans.

Expectations of the Indian team and fans

The Indian team and fans have high expectations from Kohli and Rohit during this important series. Both now have a chance to improve their game and prove themselves in Australian conditions. If Kohli and Rohit are able to return to their form and play good partnerships, it can play a big role in leading the Indian team to victory in Australia.
