The BCCI and Indian selectors have started shaping India’s roadmap for the ICC World Cup 2027, and a major change is expected in the next few months. Rohit Sharma, India’s prestigious opener and ODI captain, are not in the ICC World Cup 2027 plans.
As a News24 Sports Journalist, Vaibhav Bhola, BCCI and Indian cricket team management asked the 38 -year -old to make a respectable exit and leave the game with dignity after a spectacular career, including the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 and ICC Champion Trimefs.
Rohit Sharma, not in India’s ICC World Cup 2027 schemes, farewell series planned
He has given Hitman the option to declare his retirement only before the upcoming tour of Australia to save his entire career honors, or to face extinging from the Indian cricket team. If Rohit continues without a retirement declaration, he will play only as a player under a new captain.

The journalist is quoted by BCCI sources, “Rohit Sharma will not play in the 2027 ODI World Cup. Rohit Sharma’s exit plan is ready. The management has given a clear message to Rohit Sharma: We respect you. We win the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 under our Captain, but you are not part of 2027 Odivi.
You have to declare your retirement before Australia Odis. After that, you will be the captain of India for the ODI series and it will be our responsibility to give you a grand range in Australia. This series should be your last. ,
BCCI gives Rohit Sharma a chance to get out with dignity, as his decline is confirmed
But if Rohit Sharma does not declare his retirement before the tour of Australia, he will “leave”. BCCI wants a 38 -year -old opener to leave the game with “full respect and dignity”, but it depends entirely on the current captain. BCCI will give Rohit a full opportunity to save his reputation.
However, if Rohit Sharma does not declare his retirement from international cricket, Australia will be a new captain in ODI cricket for the tour. And Rohit will only have to play as a player in the Indian cricket team, as reported by the journalist.
India will travel to Australia with a new ODI captain, and Rohit will have to play under him as a player. Therefore, the captain cannot be dropped, but it will be easy for the selectors to sideline a player, and it is going to happen to Rohit.

Set for Rohit Sharma to lead India’s ODI team as Shubman Gill as a farewell chain on the card
Shubman Gill is ready to take over at the top of the order, while young star Yashasvi Jiswal is being designed to be India’s next opener for the ICC World Cup 2027. If Rohit walks with Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal may have to wait for his opportunity on the Australia tour.
In such a situation, Rohit will play as a player, and if he fails, he will be removed from the team, and for such a big player, dropping from the team will be such a huge insult. Now, BCCI has left Rohit everything as it is not part of his plan for the 2027 ODI World Cup.
He said, “Australia’s tour will be Rohit’s last tour of international career. If he wants to go with respect, a farewell series will be organized by the BCCI for him.” In addition, it has been reported that Gautam Gambhir’s led team management is not happy with Rohit.
