Kohli and Rohit share quite a camaraderie but not while running between the sticks

They are the two giants of modern Indian ODI cricket without a shadow of a doubt. But when it comes to running between the wickets, the duo do not share that kind of bonhomie. In ODIs, the duo have run each other out five times each while in T20Is the numbers are two each.

In 2013, at this very ground, Rohit and Kohli were involved in an identical mix-up but Kohli was the one who had to walk back that time. Today, Rohit paid the price, albeit to a brilliant bit of fielding by Steven Smith. Although both these players are terrific runners, understanding and running according to the partner's call has taken a backseat.
