Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have played their final international game for India in 2025 during Men in Blue triumphant return in the third and final ODI against South Africa in Visakhapatnam on Saturday. Having already retired from Tests and T20Is, the two former India skippers only play in the 50-over format, with an eye on the 2027 ODI World Cup.

The duo's white-ball cricket in 2025 started with the home series against England. Post that, Rohit and Virat played a crucial role during India's triumphant campaign in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 in Dubai.

It was a seven-month gap from international cricket for the duo before Rohit and Virat made a comeback in Australia, which India lost 1-2. Carrying on the momentum from Australia, Rohit and Virat didn't disappoint against South Africa.

While Kohli scored two back-to-back hundreds and a half-century, Rohit had to be content with two fifty-plus scores. With this series, it's all over for Rohit and Virat in 2025. India will now play five T20Is against the Proteas to finish the year.
