Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli
Rohit Sharma in ODI Series vs England: After the conclusion of the Test series against Australia, Team India’s next mission is the England series. The Indian team has lost the Border Gavaskar Trophy after almost 10 years and now soon the entire team will return home. At the end of this month, the Indian team will be seen playing a series of five T20 matches against England and after that three ODI matches. The Indian team for this has not been announced yet. Meanwhile, the biggest question emerging is whether Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen playing in the series against England. Now some updates are coming out regarding this.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli can play ODI series against England
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have retired from T20 International, but are playing ODI. In such a situation, there is no question about the T20 series, but there is suspense about whether he will be seen playing in the one-day matches or not. Now news is coming that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen playing against England in the ODI series. The biggest reason for this is the Champions Trophy. The Champions Trophy is to be held immediately after the India vs England ODI series. Champions Trophy will be played on ODI format. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will definitely play the Champions Trophy, but before that they will need one or two more matches so that they can test their preparation and fitness. The England series is going to be very important for this.
India has only three ODI matches before the Champions Trophy
The Indian team played only three ODI matches last year i.e. in 2024. In which he had to face defeat. Only three ODIs came to the team’s account in the whole year and after that now the team will play ODI again. That means the preparation of the Indian team is not complete for the 50 over match. Everyone has to announce their squad for the Champions Trophy by January 12. It is believed that there will be almost the same squad for the ODI series against England and the Champions Trophy. There may be one or two changes. That means the next few days will be very important. Who will be seen deciding the condition and direction of Indian cricket.
Rohit and Kohli will now play only ODIs
Team India will not play any test match soon, so Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will have only one format to play. In such a situation, he will not have much workload. Besides, Rohit Sharma is also the captain of the ODI team. He also has to prepare his team for the Champions Trophy. Because India’s first match in the Champions Trophy may be against Bangladesh, which can be considered light, but after this there are big matches against Pakistan and New Zealand, which will prove to be very tough. It remains to be seen what BCCI is thinking about its future plans.
