As discussions around India's plans for the 2027 ODI World Cup continue behind the scenes, fresh reports suggest that the team management and selectors are not yet looking at Rohit as a guaranteed part of their long-term plans for the tournament.
However, the BCCI and the Indian selection committee are reportedly taking a cautious approach. While preparations and planning for the ODI World Cup have already started, there is no assurance for any senior player, including Rohit and Virat Kohli.
England tour could be crucial for Rohit's World Cup dream
Rohit's next major assignment is the upcoming three-match ODI series in England, where every innings could play a key role in convincing the selectors and team management that the fire is still in the seasoned opener.
Now, a fresh report suggested that Rohit Sharma’s World Cup dream will depend heavily on his performances and fitness over the next year and a half.
He revealed that Indian chief selector Ajit Agarkar and his team, as well as the head coach Gautam Gambhir and team management, are not currently considering Rohit Sharma for the 2027 ODI World Cup.
Sanjay Manjrekar questions Rohit Sharma's place in India's 2027 ODI World Cup plans
Manjrekar was quoted as saying by the Times of India: “If the selectors have picked Rohit, I hope it’s because they genuinely see him as part of the 2027 World Cup plans. We all know the culture around big-name players. Decisions are rarely as simple as judging on cricketing merit alone.
That seems to be the case with Rohit too. If the selectors believe Rohit is part of the long-term plan, they should say so. But if he is being picked because they are not ready to drop him, then it reflects a problem Indian cricket has had for years. Selection should never be about what’s best for Virat, Rohit, or Bumrah. It should always be about what’s best for Indian cricket.”
