Rohit Sharma breaks silence on ODI World Cup 2027 plans amid future speculation

India is gearing up to face Australia in a three-match ODI series starting on October 19 (Sunday) at the Optus Stadium in Perth. This match holds special significance as it will see the return of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to the Indian team after a seven-month hiatus. For Rohit, this match will be a unique experience, as he will not be leading the team, having been succeeded by Shubman Gill. There are ongoing discussions about his participation in the ODI World Cup, particularly following his removal from the captaincy.

During a recent interaction with children for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Rohit Sharma expressed his desire to compete in the ODI World Cup 2027 in Australia. He also shared that his ultimate dream is to secure a World Cup victory for India, a milestone that has eluded him throughout his illustrious career.

When a child inquired about his next game, Rohit responded, “I will play in October. On the 19th of October, we are playing in Australia.”
