Will Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli play the series against England, now this update has come out

Rohit Sharma in ODI Series vs England: After the Test series against Australia is over, Team India’s next mission is the England series. The Indian team has lost the Border Gavaskar Trophy after almost 10 years and now the entire team will return home soon. At the end of this month, the Indian team will be seen playing a five-match T20I series against England followed by a three-match ODI series. However, the Indian team for this has not been announced yet. Meanwhile, the biggest question is whether Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen playing in the series against England. Now some updates are coming out about it.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli can play ODI series against England
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have retired from T20 Internationals, but are playing ODIs. In such a case, there is no question about the T20 series but there is suspense on whether he will be seen playing in the one day matches or not. Now the news is coming that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen playing in the ODI series against England. The biggest reason for this is the Champions Trophy. The Champions Trophy is to be held immediately after the India vs England ODI series. Champions Trophy will be played on ODI format. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will definitely play the Champions Trophy, but before that they need one or two more matches to test their preparation and fitness. England series is going to be very important for this.

India have only three ODIs before the Champions Trophy
The Indian team played only three ODI matches last year i.e. 2024. In which he had to face defeat. In the entire year, only three ODIs came to the account of the team and after this now the team will play ODIs again. It means the preparation of the Indian team for the 50 overs match is not complete. Everyone has until January 12 to announce their squad for the Champions Trophy. It is believed that there will be almost the same squad for the ODI series against England and the Champions Trophy. There may be one or two changes. That means the next few days will be very important. Which will be seen to determine the status and direction of Indian cricket.

Rohit and Kohli will now only play ODIs
Team India will not be playing any Test matches soon, so Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will have only one format to play. In such a case, there will not be much work burden on them. Apart from this, Rohit Sharma is also the captain of the ODI team. They also have to prepare their team for the Champions Trophy. Because if India’s first match in the Champions Trophy is against Bangladesh, which can be considered light. But after this, there will be big matches against Pakistan and New Zealand, which will prove to be very tough. It remains to be seen what the BCCI thinks about its future plans.
