The 43-year-old said that the two senior batters will take a call in the team&#8217;s best interest.<\/p>\n<p>Like the previous comments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/cricket\/news-i-got-concerns-whatsoever-rohit-virat-gautam-gambhir-throws-weight-behind-seniors-ahead-border-gavaskar-trophy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">following their failures against New Zealand in home Tests<\/a>, Gambhir said the duo still have the hunger and passion to deliver for the Men in Blue.<\/p>\n<p>The remarks came as India lost the fifth Test in Sydney by six wickets against Australia, losing the series 1-3 Down Under. This was India\u2019s first series loss in Australia after the 2014-15 series.<\/p>\n<p>Gambhir told the reporters after the fifth Test (via Hindustan Times):<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI can&#8217;t talk about the future of any player. It&#8217;s up to them as well. But yes, what I can say is that they still have the hunger, they still have the passion. They&#8217;re tough people and hopefully they can continue to take Indian cricket forward. But ultimately, as we all know, that whatever they plan, they will plan for the best interest of Indian cricket.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He added that no preferential treatments are offered to play whether anyone has played over 100 Tests.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMy job is to be honest with everyone. It&#8217;s not like I prioritize only a few players. But my job is to see every player on the same page whether he&#8217;s debuting or whoever played 100 Test Matches. Have to be fair to everyone.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>How Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have performed in BGT 2024-25 Tests<\/h2>\n<p>India captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli failed to deliver with the bat for India in the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Rohit managed just 31 runs in five innings despite playing both as middle order batter and an opener, averaging 6.2 before he stood for the fifth Test.<\/p>\n<p>In his last 15 Test innings, he managed 164 runs at an average of 10.93, comprising one half-century.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Virat Kohli looked out of sorts barring his unbeaten 100 in the series opener in Perth. Overall, he managed just 190 runs in nine innings at an average of 23.75. The right-handed batter kept getting out similar fashion while poking outside off stump channel for 8\/8th times in the series.<\/p>\n<p>In his last 15 Test innings, he managed 359 runs at an average of 27.61, including one century and a fifty.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tag-cloud\">\n<div class=\"tags-text\">\n<div class=\"scrollable-content-holder  article-padding\">\n<p class=\"article-p  \">Quick Links<\/p>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerLeft\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Left \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-left.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button><\/p>\n<nav id=\"pnProductNav\" class=\"pn-ProductNav\">\n<\/nav>\n<p><button id=\"pnAdvancerRight\" class=\"pn-Advancer pn-Advancer_Right \" type=\"button\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"background: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/statico.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/article\/article-scroll-right.svg\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<p>More from Sportskeeda<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<span class=\"publisher-name\">Edited by Vaishnavi Iyer<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script> \nvar fbPixelFired = false;\nvar pixelID = \"952063904834769\";\ndocument.addEventListener(\"scroll\", loadFBPixel, { once: true, passive: true });\ndocument.addEventListener(\"mousemove\", loadFBPixel, { once: true, passive: true });\nfunction loadFBPixel() {\nif(fbPixelFired) {\nreturn;\n}\nfbPixelFired = true;\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?
