Before Rohit Sharma came into the Lord’s India vs England ODI, there were a few speculations, that he would retire after the match. Even though BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia had confirmed that no such thing was happening, but perhaps the fans were preparing for the worst. Nonetheless, skipper Shubman Gill has refuted all retirement claims now, ending all rumours.
Rohit Sharma is not retiring
And of course, Rohit also gave a good account of his prowess, slamming 138 from 110, when India were chasing a mammoth 388 against the hosts. Speaking on the entire controversy, Gill said, “We have not had a chance. He has not told us anything. I think it’s probably in the media. Not been in discussion at all.”
“We have not had a chance. I mean, he has not told us anything. I think it’s all out in the media, but there’s not been any discussion like that in the team,” Gill repeated almost similar line. In fact, as expected, Shubman was all praise for the veteran, who scored his 34th ODI ton.
Gill says, ‘hasn’t told us anything’
“I think the way Rohit bhai faced the bowlers, he was very calm. Most of the time, I was a non-striker, and watching him, he was very calm. In the powerplay, we were talking about whether to go for a hit or not, but we saw that hitting with a new ball is not that easy. And I think the way he faced the bowlers, and the way he accelerated, I think he got close to 60-70 in quick time. So, he was very calm,” Gill said.
Meanwhile, just to reiterate what Saikia had said… “Rohit is a regular member of the Indian ODI team, and he will continue to represent the country as long as he is in the scheme of things. In other words, Lord’s ODI won’t be his last match.” The Lord’s also culminates Rohit’s poor run in ODIs in 2026, where had just one fifty in 8 games. Now perhaps he is back to being at his best.
