Rohit Sharma’s Fiery Response to ‘Old Dogs’ Remark

In a post-match interview following India’s decisive ODI win against Australia, captain Rohit Sharma provided a subtle yet powerful answer to Ravi Shastri’s “two old dogs” comment, which referred to himself and Virat Kohli. The veteran batsmen responded to pressure by delivering crucial performances. Sharma scored a magnificent 121, supported by Kohli’s composed 74 not out, as they shared an unbroken 168-run partnership to seal the chase. Sharma’s assertion that they “enjoy our cricket” and “start fresh” each time suggests their careers are far from over, with the 2027 World Cup a potential milestone. Sharma’s series aggregate of 202 runs also saw him claim the Player of the Series award. Harshit Rana’s impressive 4-wicket haul was key in restricting Australia. India’s focus now shifts to the upcoming T20I series, carrying positive signs from this ODI encounter.
