Rohit and Virat, who led India in all formats, recently played three ODIs in Australia and both were impressive in their outings – Rohit, in fact, was the man of the series – but they did require two or three games to get into the groove. After failing in the first match, Rohit notched scores of 73 and 121 not out to walk away with the series honours while Virat came good in the third match (74 not out) after posting ducks in the first two. The situation might have been different had the two been not as impressive in Australia.
