Rohit continues to play ODI and won the Champions Trophy in March, remaining a skipper in that format. He retired from T20 International after winning the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Rohit played 67 Tests and was India’s captain since replacing Virat Kohli in 2022.
He won half of the 24 Tests as a skipper, giving him the highest win percentage as India’s captain behind Kohiri, and in 2023 India lost to Australia, reaching the final of the World Test Championship.
However, last year, Rohit oversaw a 12-year home defeat in New Zealand, a 3-0 home defeat, and a 3-1 defeat in the border and Gabasker trophy against Australia.
Rohit was dropped for the decisive fifth Test in Sydney after a poorly shaped run.
The elegant right-hander averaged 4,301 test runs in the 12th century, retiring at an average of 40.57. His top score was 212 against South Africa at lunch in 2019, winning just 255 balls.
He had only 50 in 15 innings against England in Dharamsala in March 2024 against one in the final Test 100-103.
The highly anticipated five-match series against England begins in Leeds on June 20th, marking the start of both sides’ New World Test Championship cycles.
Pace bowler Jasprit Bumura represented Rohit when he missed his first Test in Australia with an injury, and did so again when Rohit retracted the series finale.
