Ravi Shastri makes BIG revelation on Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s retirement call, says ‘were not asked to…’

The next Cricket World Cup is about two years away, and former India captain and coach Ravi Shastri has told Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to focus on one series at a time.

“(Virat Kohli’s) a master chaser, and Rohit is explosive at the top. They feel they’ve got enough cricket in them. It depends how hungry you are, how fit you are, whether that passion for the game is still there. With their experience, it’ll come in very handy,” Shastri told Fox Cricket.

“I would say take it one series at a time. It’s still a long way to go. “Hopefully, if they have a good one here, that should keep them in a good state of mind, thinking of South Africa,” he added.

Shastri added that if Virat and Rohit stop enjoying the game, they may choose to retire from ODI careers.

“You could see how they left the T20 format when India won the T20 World Cup. Three of them went, (Ravindra) Jadeja, Kohli and Rohit,” he said.

“Virat retired from Test cricket, as did Rohit. They were not asked to retire. They went on their own. I would think it’s similar (for ODIs). If they’re not enjoying it, if the form is not good, they might pull the plug themselves,” he added.
