India have excelled in the recent series against Australia and South Africa in the longer format of white-ball cricket. India travelled to Australia and lost the series 2-1 to the hosts; however, it marked the return of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to international cricket.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been special performers for India since their return to international cricket. They have scored 700+ runs between them in the last 6 matches and have scored 3 centuries (2 by Virat Kohli) and 5 half-centuries (3 by Rohit Sharma) between them.
The two players would next be seen in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, in India's domestic circle, and also the New Zealand ODI series, which is scheduled for January 2026.
As long as Virat Kohli and Rohit are around, the planning has to revolve around them - Ex-BCCI selector
“As long as Virat Kohli and Rohit are around, the planning has to revolve around them. The management must stick to a pool of not more than 20 players now. Leading up to the 2019 World Cup, no one was given enough chances to settle down at No. 4. When the top order imploded in the semifinal, no one was ready," Gandhi told TOI.
"The same happened in the 2023 World Cup, when the team management was forced to play Suryakumar Yadav, who didn’t have a good ODI record,” he added.
India struggle to fix their middle/lower order
The likes of Shreyas Iyer and Axar Patel have been constant performers for India, while Ruturaj Gaikwad and Yashasvi Jaiswal also registered their maiden hundreds this series. However, they have several other players like Rishabh Pant and Washington Sundar fighting for a spot in the XI.
