Team India’s ODI captain Rohit Sharma and batting giant Virat Kohli have lately been in the news over the growing uncertainty around their futures. While several reports have suggested that the selectors have made up their minds to omit them from the 2027 ODI World Cup scheme of things, others have defied, claiming that the players are very much part of the One-Day cricket setup, as no talks of pushing them for early retirement have taken place. Suresh Raina, a former World Cup winner and their ex-teammate, has backed the pair in these testing times, suggesting that the dressing room needs them more than they need it.&nbsp;After years of failure in helping their team lift an ICC trophy, Rohit and Virat helped India taste success in consecutive years. They first guided India to their second T20 World Cup win in the Americas last year and then helped them become the most successful Champions Trophy team with a triumph earlier this year. Considering both are fit and raring to go in the only format they now play at the top level, Rohit and Kohli will be back in the ODI squad for the away Australian tour in October.&nbsp;&nbsp;Also read | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/asia-cup-2025-squad-selection-scheduled-for-next-week-tuesday-mumbai-sky-likely-to-remain-t20i-captain-report-1755231375196">Asia Cup squad selection scheduled for next week; SKY likely to remain T20I captain - Report</a> &nbsp;However, what worries everyone, including the board, the selectors, the concerned players and their fans, is how fit and in form they will be in time for the next ODI World Cup, which is more than two years away. Although Kohli’s fitness and age (36 currently) could likely see him through this patch, Rohit is on the other side of things, lagging in both. &nbsp;Meanwhile, with both around, the fans can rely on the top order to deliver almost on all occasions, as Raina pointed out how, without them, the top three can be exposed. &nbsp;“India don’t have dependable players at No. 1 and No. 3 (in ODIs) at the moment, especially when chasing,” Raina said in an interview with Telecom Asia Sport. &nbsp;“Rohit and Virat’s experience is very important.

Virat Kohli is going nowhere. In a boost to Indian cricket and its fans, their batting stalwart has quietly dismissed rumours of his international retirement with a like on an Instagram post, suggesting that he will feature in the forthcoming ODI series against Australia Down Under. Speculations were that Kohli and India’s One-Day captain Rohit Sharma would hang up their ODI boots following the conclusion of the Aussie One-Dayers, scheduled in October, with several reports stating that the BCCI have cleared their intentions of not having them in their plans for the next ODI World Cup. All that, however, has gone down the drain.&nbsp;A Dainik Jagran report sent shockwaves among the fans, with one of its reports suggesting that both batting greats might call time on their ODI careers sometime around the Australia ODIs. With the rumours doing the rounds on social media, Kohli, an internet sensation too, snubbed all that aside by liking a fan page’s post on Instagram, which featured Kohli standing alongside IPL franchise Gujarat Titans (GT) assistant coach Naeem Amin, with its caption reading, ‘Virat Kohli prepping for the Aussie ODIs’.&nbsp;Also read | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/trending/ouch-rizwan-s-leave-of-the-year-clean-bowled-moment-goes-viral-watch-1755085825478">Ouch!

India’s upcoming tour to Australia in October could be a defining one for the futures of veteran stars Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, as reports have surfaced regarding their potential retirement from international cricket. Already retired from T20Is and Test cricket, reports have suggested that Virat and Rohit's tour Down Under in Australia will be their last with the Indian team on Sunday (August 10). However, those reports have now been put on hold after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has hinted that the apex body is currently undecided on the duo’s future.<h2>BCCI still not decided on Virat, Rohit</h2>“Obviously, if they (Rohit and Kohli) have something in mind, they would tell the BCCI brass like they did before the England Test tour. But from an Indian team's perspective, the next big assignment is the T20 World Cup in February and preparations before that. The immediate focus will be on sending the best team for the Asia Cup T20 tournament, hoping all players are fit and available,” a BCCI source privy to the developments told PTI on condition of anonymity.&nbsp;On Sunday, it emerged that neither Rohit nor Virat will be in the plans for the 2027 ODI World Cup set-up, as preparations are already underway to build a team. The Dainik Bhaskar report stated that Rohit and Virat are likely to announce their retirements from the ODI format and, therefore, altogether from international cricket in the Australia tour, which begins on October 19.&nbsp;&nbsp;ALSO READ | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/from-rohit-sharma-to-virat-kohli-here-is-a-look-at-five-indian-batters-with-most-runs-in-asia-cup-odis-t20is-sachin-tendulkar-ms-dhoni-dhawan-1754123070628">From Rohit Sharma to Virat Kohli, 5 Indian batters with most runs in Asia Cup (ODIs + T20Is)</a>&nbsp;However, those reports are temporarily on hold as BCCI has refused to comment on the situation, while the source suggests the focus is now on the T20 World Cup.&nbsp;Interestingly, India were earlier scheduled to play Bangladesh as both Virat and Rohit would have played in the home series.

How destiny sometimes rings for you is surprising. A technical glitch has recently resulted in some of the greatest cricket players, including Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, calling on one of RCB captain Rajat Patidar’s old phone numbers, only for a Chhattisgarh youth to answer it, much to everyone’s amusement. In a routine telecom company practice, a mobile number that usually remains inactive for nearly six months is reallocated to someone else; the same happened with one of Patidar’s unused numbers, which is now in the name of a 21-year-old Manish Bisi from Madgaon village in Chhattisgarh.&nbsp;The incident came to light after Manish Bisi began receiving a flurry of calls from some high-profile names from the cricketing world, Gariaband SP Nikhil Rakhecha said in an official statement. He said it was a WhatsApp number that wasn’t used for some time but has now been reallocated to the original owner, the RCB skipper.&nbsp;&nbsp;Also read | <a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/end-of-road-for-virat-kohli-rohit-sharma-as-batting-duo-unlikely-for-2027-world-cup-report-1754818980608">End of the road for Virat and Rohit as batting pair do not fit in plans for 2027 ODI World Cup – Report</a> &nbsp;“It was a WhatsApp number and had probably not been in use for the last six months.

A week later, one of his friends, Khemraj, helped him install WhatsApp on his mobile, where Patidar’s picture automatically came up as the profile photo.&nbsp; &nbsp;They initially thought it was a glitch as soon as calls began coming in from numbers claiming it to be Patidar’s current and former teammates, including Virat, AB de Villiers, among others, all addressing him as ‘Rajat’.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thinking of this as a prank, Manish and his friends also chatted with the callers for about a fortnight before the matter escalated. Patidar, unable to access his old number, contracted the Madhya Pradesh Cyber Cell, which then reached out to the Gariaband Police. &nbsp;The police then reached out to the village, tracking the number and recovered the SIM, which has now been reallocated to Patidar.&nbsp;
