Debate Continues Over Rohit Sharma's Future in India's ODI TeamPreviousNext

Rohit Sharma's future in India's ODI team remains uncertain despite his selection for the upcoming England series. At 39, having retired from Tests and T20Is, opinions differ on his continued role. Former captain Dilip Vengsarkar says the decision should be Rohit's, given his achievements, while ex-batter Sanjay Manjrekar argues the team should prioritize younger players for the 2027 World Cup to secure Indian cricket's future.
