The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has denied rumors that Rohit Sharma is retiring from One Day Internationals (ODIs), with Vice-President Rajeev Shukla calling such reports baseless. Despite speculation about his future following India's recent ODI series in England, Rohit scored a strong 138 runs in the final match at Lord's. Former cricketer Deep Dasgupta also criticized retirement rumors, emphasizing that consistent performance determines selection. Rohit remains focused on contributing to the team's success.
