Legacy for Rohit: One of Indias greatest white ball players and destructive six hitters of all time and one of the most successful white ball captains and 2  format loi opener of all time . See below for accomplishments.

 

Rohit- WT20- 2 time winner once as player and once as captain

IPL- 5 time winner and won with 2 different franchises

3 200s in an era even 1 200 was a uphill task 

 

Legacy for Virat: Arguabaly top 5 white ball batsman of all time and taking all formats into account probably top 3 from India. A rockstar and biggest brand in India currently as an athlete or joint tied with Neeraj Chopra.see below for accomplishments

They are professional players. Played well and got the reward. Now time to move on.

 

India is brimming with young talent. Time for geriatric "heroes" to retire. They should have done years back.

they won't retire and won't get kicked out

At one point both Kohli and Smith looked invincible, now look at Kohli while Smith somehow is trying to regain form but still looks rusty.

 

It's a humbling experience as fan when you realize that nobody is bigger than the game.

Smith yes, Kohli no. Kohli only looked invincible in meaningless bilaterals. The moment there was something at stake he crumbled. E.g., his ICC knockout failures, WTC failures, BGT failues etc.

 

Smith OTOH was often the last man standing and changed the course of the match single handedly. No comparison between the two.

All said and done.

For me Australia is always the best place to play Test Cricket...and McG the best stadium in the world.

One of the greatest white players ever seen, mediocre in tests.

It doesn't matter if Kohli even retires after this match. For me, Kohli has always been an albatross around India's neck for too long. Can't get rid of him but we had to keep carrying his weight all along. He did more damage to Indian team than good.

Average white ball player too. When it mattered in crucial World Cup games, he struggled. Even in the last World T20 final, he almost lost us the match with his slow batting only for the bowlers to rescue us when all was lost and thanks to SA habit of choking. Otherwise, Kohli was good in less intensity games and not really good in highest impact matches.

Being a virat kohli fan will reduce your IQ by 10 points.

Clown + Vadapav = Legacy of Disaster

[Ultimate_Game]

There will be a few more chapters added to the legacy by the time they're done... there's the SCG Test to go, CT from which they won't drop themselves and screw us in another tourney, the next WTC cycle, and finally the 2027 WC where at least one of them will be around to phuck it up for us as always.

 

They'll absolutely make sure that Bumrah retires before them and he never gets a chance to play with fully functional team without any baggage or dead weight.

Clown is atleast a passionate guy. You may empathize with his emotions some times. 

 

But Vadapav is lifeless. He is the aaloo of indian cricket team.
