Posted on 6th Feb 2025 10:45 am by rohit kumar

The Indian team is currently busy preparing for the Champions Trophy tournament starting on February 19. India will play all its matches in Dubai. The 15-member team led by Rohit Sharma has already been announced. It is believed that this could be Rohit's last ICC tournament. According to the Times of India report, Rohit may also retire after this tournament, as the BCCI has talked to him. At the same time, Raina has also stated Rohit.

 

Big disclosure in this report

 

According to the Times of India report, the BCCI has asked the Indian captain to clarify his plans after the conclusion of the Champions Trophy. The board is busy preparing for the 2027 ODI World Cup and in such a situation, clarity is necessary regarding Rohit's future. According to the report, the BCCI wants the change to start in both ODIs and Tests. The board is keen to find a stable captaincy option in both formats.

 

Talks between the board and Rohit

According to the report, 'The selectors and the board people discussed this with Rohit during the last selection meeting. He has been told that he needs to decide how he wants to plan his future after the Champions Trophy.' A BCCI official told the Times of India that the team management has some plans ahead of the next World Test Championship cycle and the ODI World Cup. They want to make sure that everyone is on the same page for a smooth transition.

 

Raina gave a statement about Rohit.

At the same time, Suresh Raina also believes the same. He feels that even if Rohit does not retire, this tournament could be his last ICC tournament as captain. India are preparing to start their campaign against Bangladesh in Dubai on February 20. This will be followed by an India-Pakistan face-off on February 23. Raina believes that Rohit will be highly motivated to win another major title before potentially leaving the leadership.

 

Rohit has won three ICC trophies.

 

Rohit Sharma has already etched his name in history with three ICC trophies as a player. If he leads India to victory in the upcoming tournament, he will become the first Indian cricketer to win four ICC trophies. Raina told Star Sports that he won the T20 World Cup in 2007, the Champions Trophy in 2013, and the T20 World Cup in 2024. Winning the Champions Trophy as captain will be special for him.'

 

'Rohit is an aggressive captain'

 

Raina said, 'Rohit will be motivated to do this, but scoring runs will be important for him.' He said, 'Rohit Sharma is an aggressive captain. The way he uses his bowlers is commendable. Bringing Mohammed Shami at crucial moments and relying strategically on spinners. When Rohit scores runs, it also shows in his captaincy.'

 

'Rohit should bat aggressively'

 

Raina said, 'I think Rohit should play aggressively. You saw how he batted in the ODI World Cup. He was aggressive in the final as well. So I believe his approach will remain the same. The main question is who will open with him? Will it be Shubman Gill? Whenever they play together, they have aggressive intent.
