Team India captain Rohit Sharma is currently going through a bad form in his Test cricket. Not only this, but ever since KL Rahul has taken over the opening in Tests, Rohit’s place in the Test team also does not seem to be there. In such a situation, based on all these things, it is being speculated that Rohit will announce Sunny’s name after the last match against Australia (IND vs AUS). If we look at his performance in the last 13 innings, Rohit has scored only 152 runs at an average of less than 12.

Not only Rohit Sharma, but Ravindra Jadeja, one of the senior players of Team India, can also announce his retirement against Australia (IND vs AUS). The reason for this is his increasing age. Let us tell you that at present he is 36 years old. It is a bit difficult for him to remain fit till the next WTC cycle. Because of this, he can take Sunny’s name. If we look at his recent performance, he has scored 209 runs with the bat in the last five matches. Along with this, he has also taken 17 wickets.

Steve Smith, one of the star batsmen of Australia (IND vs AUS), can also take Sunny’s name after the Border Gavaskar Trophy. The reason for this is that his recent form is not good. Of course, he scored a century in the third match. But this century has come after about one and a half years. In such a situation, if he does not score runs in the next two matches, he will also announce his retirement. Before the century against India (IND vs AUS), he has scored 314 runs in the last 10 Test innings at an average of 44.85. During this, only 2 half-centuries have come from his bat and 91 is his best score.

Australia’s (IND vs AUS) left-arm bowler Mitchell Starc can also say goodbye to his Test cricket after the Sydney Test. Let us tell you that he is currently 34 years old. He has been performing well for Australia in all three formats for a long time. Along with this, he has also won the ICC title for his team in all three formats.

In such a situation, it is quite possible that he may say goodbye to one format very soon. Khush Starc has also announced this in the IPL, so it is possible that he may say goodbye to Test cricket. If we look at his performance in the last match, he has taken 14 wickets.
