Rohit Sharma future in Indian ODI team

Ever since Rohit announced his retirement from Test last year, there were speculations about his place in the ODI team and his inclusion in plans for the 2027 ODI World Cup. The former Indian skipper, however, has performed well in the two series played - vs Australia in Australia and against South Africa at home - to put an end to the retirement speculations. While the ODI WC 2027 is still far away to say anything concrete, Rohit's current form warrants a place in the side which is backed by his extraordinary numbers in the format as well. The upcoming three-ODI series against New Zealand at will also be another opportunity for the batter to consolidate his position for the 50-over World Cup.
