Rohit Sharma retired from T20Is after winning the T20 World Cup.
Team India captain Rohit Sharma’s childhood coach Dinesh Lad has said a surprising thing. Dinesh Lad believes that, even if Rohit Sharma takes retirement from Test cricket after the final of the World Test Championship 2025, he will be seen playing in the 2027 ODI World Cup. He says that Rohit is increasing in age and he can retire from Test cricket after T20 International cricket to focus on ODI cricket.
After T20 World Cup 2024, Rohit Sharma had announced his retirement from T20 International cricket. Speaking to Dainik Jagran, Rohit Sharma’s childhood coach Dinesh Lad said, “I am not saying that he will retire from Test cricket after the final of the ICC World Test Championship 2025. Maybe even take retirement, because as his age is increasing, it looks like he may retire from Test cricket.
His childhood coach Dinesh Lad gave a big statement regarding Rohit Sharma
The reason for this could also be that he wants to keep himself completely fit for ODI cricket. However, I give 100 percent promise that Rohit Sharma will play the 2027 ODI World Cup.” The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2027 will be played in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
Actually, Rohit Sharma wanted to win one ODI World Cup in his career and keeping that in mind, Dinesh Lad has given this statement. He was not selected in the squad for the 2011 ODI World Cup, which India won. After this, in 2015 he could not help the team win the World Cup, whereas despite scoring the most runs in the 2019 World Cup, his team lost in the semi-finals.
At the same time, India had to face defeat in the final of the 2023 ODI World Cup. India had won 10 matches till the semi-finals and the team lost in the final. In such a situation, it is possible that we may see Rohit Sharma playing in the 2027 ODI World Cup.
