It is no secret that most reckon Gambhir was behind Rohit's Test retirement. 

During the game in Ranchi, Rohit got off to a good start and hit a stylish fifty before being dismissed. Rohit scored 57 off 51 balls. His knock was laced with five fours and three sixes. He eventually perished after being trapped in front by Marco Jansen. He looked poised to get a hundred and hence would certainly have been disappointed on missing it.

"Well, today was really nice to kind of get into the game like that. The pitch played quite decently in the first 20-25 overs before it started to slow down. So, I just felt like, you know, let me just go out there and just hit the ball," Kohli said at the post-match presentation. 

The next game would be played in Raipur on December 3 and India would ideally like to continue their winning momemtum forward.
