Virat Kohli Former India captain Virat Kohli, who announced his retirement from T20I and Tests, is getting ready for the Australia series in October after the Bangladesh ODI series scheduled for August was postponed. Kohli recently shared a picture from an indoor net practice, indicating that he is ready to play the ODI format again since his last appearance at the Champions Trophy.

Virat Kohli is excited for the ODIs. Joke's on those who dared to question his dedication for the game. — Pari (@BluntIndianGal) August 13, 2025 Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will continue playing in the ODI format Both Kohli and Rohit Sharma will continue playing in the ODI format after stepping away from T20Is and Tests, with Rohit also continuing as the team's captain. However, the BCCI is proceeding cautiously about their long-term ODI plans, with age becoming a key factor in the discussions. Rohit will be 40 and Kohli will be 39 by the time of the 2027 ODI World Cup. Their value to the team is nevertheless highlighted by their combined ODI record of 83 centuries and overs 25,000. Even though India no longer depends on them in other formats, they still have a big influence in 50-over cricket. India's next ODI assignment is the Australia series, which is scheduled for October 19–25. Both veterans are anticipated to be key players.
