With the change of captain of the Indian ODI team, ‘Rohit Sharma Era’ has ended. While announcing the Indian squad for the Australian tour, Ajit Agarkar said that Shubman Gill is being made the new captain of the ODI team, while Rohit will continue to play as a batsman. Meanwhile, India’s legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar says that soon more ‘bad news’ can come.

Sunil Gavaskar believes that the Indian team does not have to play much ODI matches till 2027 ODI World Cup. In such a situation, if Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have to maintain their game fitness, then they have to be active in domestic cricket. In a conversation with sports, Sunil Gavaskar was asked whether any ‘bad news’ could come in relation to Rohit Sharma, then he replied yes.

Sunil Gavaskar said, “Yes, of course. If you (Rohit Sharma) are not committed, you are not able to decide whether you will be ready for the next 2 years or not, then be ready for Bad News. They also know about that if they only play ODI, they will need more practice and have to participate in tournaments like Vijay Hazare Trophy.”

The team comes first …

The Indian veteran also told that Rohit Sharma now only plays ODI matches, but Team India does not have to play more ODI matches till 2027 World Cup. In such a situation, Rohit Sharma will not be able to practice as much as it is for tournament like World Cup. Gavaskar said that it was decided to make Shubman Gill captain in the event of Rohit’s team not being fixed.
