India are scheduled to host Afghanistan for a three-match ODI series beginning on June 13, 2026, in Dharamshala. Rohit found his place in the squad, but his availability is subject to fitness. The right-handed batter played as an "Impact Player" in the last few matches for the Mumbai Indians (MI) during IPL 2026.
“Now we know why Jaiswal isn’t part of the ODI squad,” the source said.
Rohit had missed several IPL matches earlier in the season due to a hamstring injury. The report also claimed that selectors were uncertain about his fitness status while discussing squad combinations, as he had not completed a scheduled assessment at the National Cricket Academy.
