Kohli-Rohit Craze: Australia Sees Full Houses 4 Months In Advance

The last time Kohli and Rohit were seen together in Indian colours was during the Champions Trophy 2025, where India clinched the title under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy.

Following their retirement from T20Is and Test cricket, Indian cricket legends Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are now set to focus solely on ODIs.

Their return to the field is eagerly awaited by fans — and the excitement is so immense that stadiums in Australia are already sold out for the upcoming ODI series, scheduled four months from now.

Unmatched Fan Following in Australia

Such is the fanfare around Kohli and Rohit that over 90,000 tickets have already been sold.

Matches in Sydney and Canberra are completely booked, reflecting the duo's massive popularity not just in India, but globally. Even before heading to Australia, India is slated to play an ODI series against Bangladesh, but political tensions between the two nations have cast doubt over that series.

Last Appearance in Champions Trophy 2025

The last time Kohli and Rohit were seen together in Indian colours was during the Champions Trophy 2025, where India clinched the title under Rohit Sharma’s captaincy.

A week after the tournament, both stalwarts announced their retirement from Test cricket during IPL 2025 — a decision that surprised fans and pundits alike.

ODI Comeback on the Cards

With both players having stayed away from the field since IPL 2025, their expected comeback in the three-match ODI series in Australia has sparked tremendous anticipation. Fans across the cricketing world are counting down the days to watch the legendary pair back in action — this time, exclusively in the 50-over format.
