Rohit Sharma
Team India has won the second ICC Trophy within a year under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma and made the rest of the teams realize their dominance in world cricket. While the Indian team won the 2024 T20 World Cup, now he also succeeded in winning the ICC Champions Trophy title. At the same time, before the start of this tournament, such speculations were being made that Rohit would say goodbye to the ODI format, but after winning the Champions Trophy, it made it clear that he has no intention of taking retirement from both ODI and Test right now. Now on his decision, Ricky Ponting, who won the 4 ICC Trophy as a captain, has revealed the statement of Ricky Ponting, in which he told which work of Rohit has remained incomplete, due to which he has not decided to retire.
I think Rohit’s goal to play 2027 ODI World Cup in his mind
In his statement on ICC review, former Australian captain Ricky Ponting said that everyone is waiting to take your retirement when you get close to this stop of your career. I do not know why this happens. That too when you are playing well as he showed in the final match of the Champions Trophy. I think Rohit was trying to end such questions forever and saying, no, I am still playing very well. I like to play in this team. I like to do the captain of this team. His decision to me simply means that Rohit is aiming to play in the next ODI World Cup to be held in 2027.
Rohit wants to make another attempt to win the World Cup
Ricky Ponting further said in his statement that I think it would have been left in Rohit’s mind that Team India had lost the final match of the ODI World Cup under his captaincy. Because of this, he would want to make another effort. The way he played in the final match of the ICC Champions Trophy, he could not say this now. Let us know that the ODI World Cup of 2027 will be played in the joint host of South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
