Mumbai Test against New Zealand could very well be last time we see four Indian stalwarts toger on home soil. Virat Kohli , Rohit Sharma , Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jeja have combined and won many games for India over years, but Mumbai Test that starts on November 1 could be last time y play toger on home soil. reason being - no one's getting any young and India play ir next home Test series after a year in October 2025. Ashwin is 38, Rohit 37, Kohli will be 36 in a week and Jeja turns 36 in December. It going to be very wishful to think that four will play toger 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 past two seasons, re have been speculations over his red-ball future. He recently retired from T20 cricket after India won 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 time next home Test series comes by. With rise of Washington Sundar and a few ors, it is not certain Ashwin would be part of red-ball side next year or not.

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