India cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma and veteran Virat Kohli have arrived in Bengaluru ahead of the IND vs NZ 1st Test. The three-match series against the Kiwis will get underway from October 16, with the M Chinnaswamy stadium hosting the first game. India will be eyeing to continue their domination at home and are coming off a 2-0 whitewash against Bangladesh.
Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli arrive in Bengaluru for IND vs NZ 1st Test
The Indian side will regroup in the Karnataka capital and will possibly have a short camp before the IND vs NZ 1st Test. Both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will aim to return to their prime form in the longest format, given that their expertise will be in demand for the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia in late November. While the Hitman only managed scores of 6 & 5, and 23 & 8 in the two Tests against Bangladesh, Virat Kolhi looked slightly better, with scores of 6, 17, 47, and 29.
