Rohit Sharma told to retire after England tour
According to The Indian Express, India’s third and final ODI against England at Lord's on July 19 will be Rohit Sharma's last match of his international career. The report claimed that the BCCI's selection committee has decided to move on from Rohit after the ongoing ODI series in England.
It is also claimed that the national selectors, along with Gautam Gambhir, spoke to Rohit last week and shared their plans for the future. The selection committee now wants to build a young ODI team for the 2027 World Cup.
Yashasvi Jaiswal is expected to take the Hitman's spot on the team, as the selectors do not see Rohit as part of India's long-term ODI plans for the ICC World Cup 2026.
A BCCI source was quoted as saying by The Indian Express: “Selectors have informed Rohit he is not in their scheme of things post the England tour, and they are moving on from him after this series. Though he wanted to continue, especially after working on his fitness. The selectors have left the ball in Sharma’s court to decide his future.”
