Aus vs Ind, 3rd Test: Rohit Playing A Test Match First Time Without Kohli

India's vice-captain Rohit Sharma is playing his 33rd Test match today at Sydney Cricket Ground(SCG) against Australia. In his relatively short career, Rohit is for the first time playing a test match without the presence of India's captain Virat Kohli. 

Virat Kohli is not part of the Test series since he has gone back to India while Rohit Sharma is playing his first match of the series. The two have played 32 Tests together. Rohit's next common teammate is India's stand-in skipper Ajinkya Rahane with whom he has played 29 Test matches.
