NEW DELHI: The final ODI against England at Lord’s Sunday may not happen Rohit SharmaLast match for India after all. BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia on Saturday dismissed speculation of retirement and countered that the senior opener remains firmly in India’s ODI plans.The clarification comes amid uncertainty over Rohit Sharma’s future after it emerged the veteran opener would no longer be an automatic selection beyond the ongoing England series, with selectors eyeing every ODI selection in the build-up to the 2027 World Cup. Saikia, however, said that no decision has been taken on Rohit’s future.“There is a lot of speculation going on in the media about Rohit Sharma’s future. I want to state strongly that there has been no such discussion that Rohit will play his last match at Lord’s Sunday,” Saikia said, as quoted by PTI.Saikia also made it clear that Rohit continues to be an integral part of India’s ODI set-up.“Rohit is a regular member of the Indian ODI team and will continue to represent the country as long as he is in the scheme of things. In other words, the Lord’s ODI will not be his last match,” the BCCI secretary confirmed.The Times of India had earlier announced that Rohit was no longer guaranteed a place in India’s ODI XI, with the selectors keen to assess each player on form and fitness as preparations gather for the 2027 ODI World Cup. The assessment was that the door remained open for Rohit to continue as long as he continued to justify his place through performances. Rohit is currently 13 matches away from becoming only the eighth player in ODI history to make 300 appearances.
