Rohit Sharma will lead Team India

Recently, BCCI Secretary Jay Shah made a big announcement. Actually, he released a video and congratulated Team India on winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Also, the BCCI Secretary said that Rohit Sharma will captain the Indian team till the final of the World Test Championship 2025 to be held next year.

In such a situation, Hitman will be seen leading the team in the Border Gavaskar Trophy to be held in Australia later this year.

Will go to Australia with these players

From November 22, 2024, the Indian team will play a five-match Test series against Australia. In this series, the team management will give a chance to as many senior players as possible.

Rohit Sharma (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Hardik Pandya, Rishabh Pant, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Jaspreet Bumrah, Mohammad Shami, Mohammad Siraj and Avesh Khan.
