While Virat Kohli has been ruled out of the India vs Afghanistan ODI series due to a hamstring injury, there is tension over Rohit Sharma’s availability for the 3-match ODI series.
During the IPL 2026 season, Sharma also suffered a hamstring injury, which has made him uncertain for the upcoming ODI series. As per the latest update, the experienced opening batsman may get clearance to participate in the One Day International series against Afghanistan, which starts on June 13.
Will Rohit Sharma play in the ODI series against Afghanistan?
Before the first match of the three-match competition, Rohit Sharma will have to prove his fitness to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). According to the Times of India report, Sharma is likely to report to the BCCI CoE on June 8 for fitness clearance.
