The cake was ready for Team India, which returned to the hotel after defeating South Africa in the decisive match. Virat Kohli was asked to cut the cake, he asked Yashasvi Jaiswal to do it. Yashasvi cut the cake and fed it to Virat Kohli first, but as soon as he asked Rohit Sharma to eat the cake, he gave such a reply that even Kohli burst out laughing.

Virat Kohli was adjudged the best player of the ODI series against South Africa, who scored a total of 302 runs in 3 matches. Kohli had scored centuries (135 and 102) in the first two ODIs, in the decisive match he played an unbeaten inning of 65 runs. In this innings played in 45 balls, Kohli hit 3 sixes and 6 fours. Earlier, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma had almost ensured India’s victory by making a partnership of 155 runs for the first wicket.

‘I will get fat again’, why did Rohit Sharma say this?

We all know that Rohit Sharma has worked a lot on his fitness in the last few months, he has lost several kilos of weight by working hard. Now Rohit seems to be more cautious about his fitness. Similar thing was seen in Visakhapatnam. When the Indian players returned to the hotel after winning the series, there was a cake ready for their celebration. Virat Kohli was asked to cut the cake, he handed the knife to Yashasvi.

Yashasvi cut the cake and fed it to Virat Kohli first, he ate it. After this, when Yashasvi caked in front of Rohit Sharma, he said, “I will get fat again” and laughed from there.
Went away. At this everyone including Virat Kohli laughed.

Rohit scored 121 runs and Virat scored 74 runs, due to their innings India defeated Australia by 9 wickets. After the match, both of them also indicated that this might be their last match as cricketers in Australia. Probably he has said goodbye to Australia, but in the meantime Cricket Australia CEO Todd Greenberg has hinted at bringing Rohit-Virat into BBL.

Let us tell you that Ravichandran Ashwin will be seen playing for Sydney Thunder in the next season of Big Bash League (BBL). This was called the biggest signing in BBL history, but Ashwin will play in BBL after retirement. But Ashwin will be the first capped Indian cricketer who will play in the Australian league.

Will Rohit-Virat play in BBL?

Cricket Australia CEO Todd Greenberg was also asked whether players of the level of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli would ever be able to play in the BBL. On this, Greenberg said, “Under some circumstances this may be possible. We have to continue the conversation.”

Greenberg described Ravichandran Ashwin’s deal as the biggest proof that it is not impossible for players of Rohit and Virat’s level to come to BBL. He also talked about making BBL a private league, the discussion on which is currently going on.

Can Rohit-Virat play in BBL?

Even though R Ashwin is going to play for Sydney Thunder, this has become possible only after his international and IPL retirement. Even if Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retire completely from international cricket, they will not be able to play in BBL. He will be eligible to play in BBL only after retiring from IPL.
