India will be starting a three-match ODI series against Australia from Sunday (October 19). It's a must-win series that will serve as a test for both teams on their way to the 2027 World Cup. However, the truth is, the Indian fans are only concerned about Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, and how will they perform in this make or break series for them.
Without much interaction on the field, the Gautam Gambhir, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have dominated the headlines over the past couple of months. Now, as the Indian team is conducting their first training session in Perth, a short video of Rohit and Gambhir having a quick chat has gone viral on social media.

After a long layoff, Rohit will be back in international cricket, and he looked very good during his practice session in the nets. With only a couple of days to prepare for the pitch that is known to be one of the fastest in the world, the main concern is getting his timing right.
According to the reports, there was a lot of chat between Rohit and Gambhir on the sidelines before going into the nets - a moment that has fuelled even more speculation about the relationship between the Indian captain and the coach.
