The cricketing world is abuzz with reports suggesting that Rohit Sharma’s ODI career might be nearing its conclusion, raising questions about his availability for the 2027 World Cup. After retiring from Test and T20 formats, Rohit’s focus had narrowed to ODIs. While he led India to the Champions Trophy title in 2025, murmurs of a captaincy change and uncertainty over his place in the team have surfaced. According to reports, the BCCI is evaluating options for the ODI captaincy, adding further intrigue to the situation. Rohit Sharma himself had previously expressed his intention to play in the 2027 World Cup. However, the current reports from publications like the Hindustan Times have created uncertainty. Shubman Gill took over as the Test captain after Rohit’s retirement from the longest format, and the team faces a challenging tour of England. The shift in leadership, coupled with potential changes in the ODI format, signals a period of transition for Indian cricket.
