Recently, speculations about Rohit Sharma’s retirement had created a stir on the internet. BCCI has rejected those media reports which claimed that Rohit Sharma can play the last match of his career at Lord’s on July 19. At the same time, speculations about sourness in the relationship between Gautam Gambhir and Rohit Sharma also gained momentum. Meanwhile, a video of Rohit and Gambhir from Lord’s Stadium has gone viral.
Rohit-Gambhir’s video goes viral
A video is going viral on social media, in which Gautam Gambhir, Rohit Sharma, Team India’s batting coach Sitanshu Kotak and some other members of the support staff are seen. All of them were seen laughing and joking before starting the practice session on the field.
Especially that moment caught people’s attention when Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir were seen laughing and smiling while talking while standing on the historic balcony of Lord’s. Leaving behind the speculations of retirement, Rohit Sharma practiced at Lord’s ground on Saturday, July 18. To get back into form, he was also seen practicing with batting coach Sitanshu Kotak. This video that has surfaced is also important because rumors of sourness in the relationship between Rohit and Gambhir have gained momentum recently.

BCCI rejected the reports
Last Friday, BCCI Secretary Devjit Saikia made it clear that Rohit will not play his last match at Lord’s. He said that as long as Rohit is included in the plans of Team India, he will continue to represent his country.
Personally, Rohit Sharma’s form is not going well. His scores in the first two matches against England have been 11 and 26 and he has been able to score only one half-century in the last eight ODI innings. BCCI’s dismissal of rumors of Rohit’s retirement can be understood to mean that Yashasvi Jaiswal may have to wait longer for his chance.
