Rajeev Shukla, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) vice-president, bluntly stated that the perception that the Australia tour would be the last time Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli would be seen in action in international cricket is absolutely wrong.
India will tour Australia for a three-match ODI series and a five-match T20I series in October-November 2025. Perth Stadium will host the ODI series opener on October 19, and the next two matches are set to be played on October 23 and 25 in Adelaide and Sydney. After that, the T20I matches are set to be played on October 29, 31, November 2, 6, and 8 across five different venues.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were last seen in action in competitive cricket in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 for the Mumbai Indians (MI) and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).
It is absolutely wrong to say that this is their last ODI series - Rajeev Shukla
There were some reports that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will be announcing their retirement from ODI cricket as well at the end of the series against the Aussies.
"It is going to benefit us a lot. They are great batsmen. We will succeed in defeating Australia with them in the team. It is absolutely wrong to say that this is their last ODI series. It depends on the players as to when they have to retire," he told ANI in Delhi.
