Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, the two biggest names in Indian cricket, remain the team’s pillars, with their recent Champions Trophy success again bringing to the fore their importance. Kohli and Rohit started their international careers almost at the same time, with a one-year difference, and over the years have solidly established themselves as forces to reckon with in all formats. Rohit debuted for India in 2007, followed by Kohli in 2008, and hence began their incredible careers in international cricket.

Virat Kohli On His Bond With Rohit Sharma

Virat Kohli reflect on his bond with Rohit Sharma and how both of them have grown up in their career together.

“I think it’s a very natural thing to take place when you play with someone for so long and you share so much of your insight of the game initially, your learning from each other, you’re kind of growing in your careers at probably the same time, and you share all kind of queries and questions,” Kohli said in a video posted by RCB.

Virat And Rohit Worked Closely Together

“So there’s a lot of back and forth that happens and also the fact that, you know, we worked very closely in terms of the leadership for the team, so there were always ideas discussed and more or less, we would end up on the same page in terms of the gut feel of that situation – there is a trust factor and do the job for the team,” he added.

“Enjoyed Our Time Playing Together”

“We have definitely enjoyed our time playing together, so we were able to make out careers long because when we were young, as I said, it was not certain that we would end up playing for 15 years for India. The journey for so long and consistently, very grateful and very happy for all the memories, all the moments that we’ve shared and continue to do so,” he concluded.
