With this, now Rohit Sharma has given a shocking statement to everyone before the Melbourne Test. Soon these 2 players can also announce their retirement from Team India. Let us tell you who are these two players for whom the doors of return to Team India have been closed…
Rohit Sharma’s statement caused a sensation
The third match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy played at Brisbane’s Gaba ground proved to be the last match of India’s legendary spin bowler R Ashwin’s career. As soon as this match ended, Ashwin said goodbye to international cricket forever. In the press conference held after the match, Rohit Sharma answered the reporters’ question that it was beneficial if Rahane, Pujara and Ashwin were on the field. But now these players will not be there. After this, he remembered that Rahane and Pujara have not yet announced their retirement and immediately changed his answer.
Rahane and Pujara will not enter Team India

Team India’s veteran players Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane have not yet announced their retirement from international cricket. But now their return to Team India is not visible. Both the players played their last match with Team India in the year 2023 and since then the management is not giving them preference. It has also become almost clear from Rohit Sharma’s statement before the Melbourne Test that these two players are not going to enter the team.
Rohit Sharma may also retire soon!
Rohit Sharma, who is leading Team India on the Australia tour, may also have to announce his retirement from Test cricket soon. His recent performance has been very disappointing, his bat has been completely silent in the last 13 innings and he has been able to score only one half-century.
After Ashwin’s retirement, the pressure on him is also increasing. If Team India loses in the upcoming matches of the series and their performance also remains poor, then it is possible that Rohit may also announce his retirement after the series ends.
