Bad form became a problem for Rohit

Veteran batter is going through a bad phase with the bat these days. His bat has been completely silent since winning the T20 World Cup 2024. Rohit looked completely flopped against New Zealand, Bangladesh and then Australia. On the tour of Australia, Rohit Sharma was able to score only 31 runs in 5 innings.

With this, it seems difficult for him to play in the World Cup to be held in the year 2027. Rohit, who is 38 years old, will be 40 by the next World Cup. In such a situation, maintaining both fitness and form can prove to be a tough challenge for him. If his performance in the Champions Trophy is disappointing, then it is possible that he may announce his retirement.
