Sometimes the best way to move ahead is to take a step away. Former Australian pacer Brett Lee believes that is exactly what Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli must do to regain their mojo before they take on the mighty Australia in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

Even Rohit might not have foreseen the utter humiliation his side would face as India condemned themselves to eternal humiliation with a 3-0 whitewash against New Zealand at home, the first-ever in a three-match series for India.

The swords were most definitely drawn at Rohit and his talisman Virat Kohli the very next moment and that is exactly why Lee believes that the two superstars need to reset mentally and start new.

“If you look at the Hitman (Rohit Sharma) and King (Virat) Kohli – they got 90 runs each in the series. It’s so unlike them. They are way better players than that. It’s hard to put your fingers on why they failed,” stated Lee on his YouTube channel.

“When you have a couple of bad runs back-to-back, that’s when the pressure could set in. I guess the thing now is someone like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma just have to go back to the drawing board.”

Lee also stated the importance of getting back to the basics, and taking a break away from the game as much as possible. He also issued a warning to both batters regarding the Australian pace attack, which will look to exploit any and every bit of weakness they can find to pose a threat to the Indians.
