World Cup 2027: Rohit Sharma, the veteran who led Team India to the T20 World Cup title, has recently announced his retirement from T20 International cricket. Apart from Rohit Sharma, Indian cricket's legendary batsman Virat Kohli has also announced his retirement from the T20 format.

Many media reports are claiming that after retiring from the T20 format, great players like Rohit and Virat Kohli have shot themselves in the foot because it is believed that after the T20 World Cup 2024, they will first be shown the way out of the World Test Championship final and then from the World Cup 2027.

The career of both the great players will depend on their performance in Champions Trophy

World Cup 2027

BCCI Secretary Jay Shah has recently officially announced that the senior players of the team will be seen playing in the Champions Trophy 2025.

If the performance of the team's star players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma remains poor in that ICC event, then Team India's next head coach Gautam Gambhir can show the way out to both these star players from the team.

It is very difficult to get a chance in the World Cup 2027

If Team India's legendary batsmen Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli perform brilliantly in the Champions Trophy 2025 and represent Team India in the final of the World Test Championship, then it can prove to be a big challenge for both these legendary players to be included in the team squad of World Cup 2027 by performing consistently well for the Indian team in the World Cup to be held in the year 2027.

Team India captaincy may soon be taken away from Rohit Sharma

If the Indian team wins the Champions Trophy 2025 and the World Test Championship under the captaincy of current Indian ODI and Test cricket captain Rohit Sharma, then despite that, the captaincy of the team can be taken away from Rohit Sharma in the year 2025 and given to any other Indian player.

Looking at the current equation, Hardik Pandya, Jaspreet Bumrah, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant are being considered as the contenders for the next captain of Team India.
