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.
