Rohit Sharma to be sacked as ODI captain? Report drops bombshell ahead of Australia tour ...Middle East

News by : (cricketaddictor) -

The biggest question currently in Indian cricket is regarding the future of the modern-day batting great Rohit Sharma in international cricket.

Rohit and Virat Kohli had a glorious end to their T20I careers as they finished it by winning the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024. However, the same can't be said about their Test retirements, as they experienced an extended lean patch with the bat. Rohit Sharma announced his Test retirement on May 7, 2025, and a few days later, on May 12, 2025, Virat Kohli announced his Test retirement.

Meanwhile, they are set to make their comeback to international cricket in the upcoming ODI series against the Australia National Cricket Team, as per a report in PTI.

BCCI to pick Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in ODI squad on October 4

"The selectors are likely to sit down on Saturday, the third day of the ongoing first Test against the West Indies in Ahmedabad, to pick the squads. But there is no clarity yet on the squad announcement," the report in PTI read.

Rohit Sharma NOT TO BE SACKED!!

However, the report in PTI claims that the BCCI is in no mood to sack Rohit Sharma because he has been performing well consistently with the bat, and the team is also doing well under his leadership.

Notably, Rohit has shed a lot of weight and has maxed out his fitness levels with an eye on the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2027, which will be played in African countries. It will be interesting to see if Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are considered for the next 50-over World Cup. However, currently, the BCCI isn't concerned about it and is focusing on the T20 World Cup 2026.

"The priority at the moment rests with the T20 World Cup early next year at home, and gaining the maximum WTC points from the four home Tests in 2025," the report added.
