Not Retiring From This Format Yet, Says Rohit Sharma After CT 2025 Triumph
T20 World Cup: India captain Rohit Sharma confirmed he is not planning to retire from ODIs after leading India to a four-wicket triumph over New Zealand in the 2025 Champions Trophy final here on Sunday. The right-handed opener raced to 76 runs, with seven boundaries and three sixes to his name, and helped India set the pace for the run chase in tricky Dubai conditions.
"I am not going to retire from this format," said Rohit in the post-match press conference. “Koi future plan hai nahi, jo chal raha hai chalega (no future plan, whatever is happening will continue),” he added.
The 37-year-old, who had previously announced his decision to retire from T20Is following India’s triumph in the 2024 T20 World Cup, was expected to step down from white-ball cricket as a whole, given the next ODI tournament is the World Cup in 2027, slated to be played in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
