Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma has reportedly decided to take a break from the upcoming Test series against England due to his recent poor performances in the format. According to news sources, insiders have confirmed that the Indian skipper has already made up his mind to opt out of the series.
Virat Kohli Expected to Make a Comeback
While Rohit Sharma plans to rest, former Indian captain Virat Kohli is likely to rejoin the Test squad for the England tour. This development could bring stability to the Indian batting lineup as the team prepares for a challenging overseas tour.
Rohit Sharma’s Struggles in Test Cricket
Rohit Sharma’s recent form in Test cricket has been disappointing. During the Test series against Australia, he managed to score only 31 runs in three matches. His struggles led him to drop out of the final match in Sydney. The poor run of form has raised concerns about his ability to perform in the longest format of the game.
India’s Tour of England Schedule
India’s 45-day tour of England is set to begin on June 20, with the first Test match scheduled to be played at Headingley. The series is expected to be a crucial challenge for the Indian team as they face England in tough overseas conditions.
With Rohit Sharma potentially missing the series, all eyes will be on the BCCI’s official squad announcement and whether the team management confirms his absence in the coming weeks.
