In a light-hearted yet telling post-match moment, Indian stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma appeared to sidestep a question about the 2027 ODI World Cup during their rare joint interview at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) after India’s series-clinching win.
The scene unfolded when Adam Gilchrist, hosting alongside Ravi Shastri, asked the duo whether fans could expect to see them together again at the 2027 World Cup in South Africa. Before Rohit could respond, Kohli gave a playful tap on Rohit’s back, smiled, and gestured towards him — sparking laughter both on the field and among the commentators.
However, with the crowd noise growing louder, the interview was abruptly wrapped up, and neither Kohli nor Rohit addressed the question directly. The pair shared a knowing grin before walking away, leaving fans guessing about their future plans.
The clip quickly went viral on social media, with fans calling it “the most iconic unanswered question in years.” Many speculated that the silence — paired with Kohli’s gesture — hinted at the possibility that this Australian tour might be their last together in the country, marking the end of an era for Indian cricket’s most celebrated duo.
