Melbourne, December 30, 2024: Indian cricket legends Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are facing intense online criticism after their disappointing performances in the ongoing Test series against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). Both players, who have been the pillars of Indian cricket for over a decade, failed to make an impact with the bat once again, leading to growing calls for their retirement.
Rohit Sharma, the Indian captain, was dismissed cheaply in both innings of the match, while Virat Kohli struggled to find his rhythm, managing only a few runs across the two innings. This failure on one of the biggest stages has led to heated debates on social media, with many fans questioning their place in the national team. The duo’s recent string of low scores has fueled further speculation about their future in international cricket.
While both players have enjoyed illustrious careers, their recent performances have sparked a surge in calls for younger talent to take over. Critics are calling for the inclusion of emerging stars, suggesting that it might be time for Kohli and Sharma to consider stepping down for the future of Indian cricket. However, their supporters continue to defend them, citing their past achievements and contributions to Indian cricket.
