Former Australian all-rounder Shane Watson has heaped praise on Sam Konstas for his electrifying debut in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy series while also voicing his support for Indian cricket stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma ahead of the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy.

Rohit has scored only 31 runs with only a single double-digit score in the ongoing Test series against Australia. On the other hand, Virat Kohli scored a century in Perth but then after that, he failed to make an impact with the bat so far in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy.

Shane Watson backed Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma to shine in the Champions Trophy, dismissing concerns over their Test form. Despite struggles in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, their ODI brilliance remains a critical factor for India's campaign success.
