Former Australian skipper, Ian Chappell, says India's Rohit Sharma should be chosen over Virat Kohli in the Test series between the two sides, starting in Melbourne on December 26.
Kohli has more or less sealed the number-six slot with a century in the last warm-up game in Canberra, but Chappell said it would be a mistake to play the Delhi batsman at the expense of Sharma.
"I think Rohit Sharma should be preferred. I have seen him taking on the Australians, playing the horizontal shots.
"But I think Kohli will be played, and that will be a mistake," Chappell said
