2. INDIA vs. AUSTRALIA, 7th ODI at BENGALURU, 2013
This was a memorable match for Rohit as he scored his first double ton in international cricket. Virat was on the suffering side that day as he was again run out by Rohit. It was a seven-match ODI series with Australia and India entered the seventh ODI with 2-2 all and the final clash was expected to be blazing one. Both the openers Rohit and Shikhar were batting brilliantly and Virat entered the field when Shikar’s wicket fell.
Kohli drove the ball towards the mid-on and he wanted to score a quick single. Rohit responded to the call but once he realized that they won’t be able to make it and decided to stop, it was already late. Kohli was almost near the non-striker’s end and the ball was thrown to the wicketkeeper and Virat was run out. Though Kohli didn’t score a single run in the match, he must be proud of his teammate’s great knock of 209 runs. Fortunately, the run out did not prove costly as India won the match by 57 runs.
