The Mumbai Test against New Zealand could very well be the last time we see four Indian stalwarts together on home soil. Virat Kohli , Rohit Sharma , Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja have combined and won many games for India over the years, but the Mumbai Test that starts on November 1 could be the last time they play together on home soil. The reason being – no one’s getting any young and India play their next home Test series after a year in October 2025. Ashwin is 38, Rohit 37, Kohli will be 36 in a week and Jadeja turns 36 in December. It going to be very wishful to think that the four will play together exactly after a year.

Modern Fab 4s Current Status, Prediction

Virat Kohli : Given his current run of form and with age not being on his side, it is difficult at this point to imagine Kohli feature a year later. 

Rohit Sharma : Over the past two seasons, there have been speculations over his red-ball future. He recently retired from T20 cricket after India won the World Cup. With Rohit, fitness is also a concern and hence it is – like in Kohli’s case – difficult to imagine him playing Test cricket.

Ravichandran Ashwin : He would be 39 by the time the next home Test series comes by. With the rise of Washington Sundar and a few others, it is not certain Ashwin would be part of the red-ball side next year or not. 

Ravindra Jadeja: The left-arm finger spinner who picks up plenty of wickets at home is deadly accurate and hence is very economical. But, this year, his economy has shot up and that is not a good sign. At the present moment, it is hard to imagine him feature in a red-ball game at home after an year.
