The India National Cricket Team will be up against the West Indies National Cricket Team for a three-match series, with the first match set to be played on Sunday 27th September 2027. Ahead of the match, one question still revolves around whether Rohit Sharma will play in the ODI World Cup 2027, as the former India captain has broken his silence on the matter.
Shubman Gill, as a captain, has not been up to the mark in the ODI format, as he has won one series in this format, that too against Afghanistan at home. He has lost against some of the big teams, including Australia away, New Zealand at home, and England away. This is a crucial series for the 27-year-old cricketer.
Amidst this, Rohit Sharma, while speaking with JioStar, revealed his plans and place for the ODI World Cup 2027. He feels that there is always something to look forward to as long as a player continues to represent the country; he has been looking forward to the forthcoming major event and also what lies ahead of him.
"The thought will never cross my mind that the business I had is finished. As long as you're playing, there is always something to look forward to and I'm looking forward to the World Cup, looking at what lies ahead for me."
"You have to prepare differently, think in a different way": Rohit Sharma on importance of ODI World Cup
Rohit Sharma highlighted the importance of ICC tournaments. He believes these major tournaments have their own challenges, as they face different opponents at different venues, so they have to prepare accordingly and assess things differently, which is challenging in itself.
"When the World Cup is played, when we play an ICC tournament, it has its own unique challenge, because you face different opponents, you play at different venues so, you have to prepare differently, think in a different way and that is the challenge."
It was previously reported that Rohit Sharma is not in the scheme of things for the ODI World Cup 2027 in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia and would retire after the Lord’s ODI in England. However, dismissing all the rumours, he still continues to represent the Men in Blue in the 50-over format and will once again be seen opening on Sunday.
The former India captain has been in good form as he comes into the series after scoring a brilliant hundred in his last ODI innings away from home. So he would like to continue with the same form in this series and answer all his critics.

Rohit Sharma's record at ODI World Cup
Rohit has unfinished business with the ODI World Cup; it dates back to 2023, when he was the captain of the side, and the Men in Blue under his guidance went on to the final undefeated and lost to Australia at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. The journey of that World Cup was amazing until the final.
He is also the batter with the most centuries in the major tournament, as he surpassed the record of Sachin Tendulkar in the 2023 ODI World Cup. He has seven World Cup hundreds to his name, as no other batter has more World Cup hundreds than him, with Sachin at 6. This showcases his legacy at the tournament.
