Virat Kohli could be on the verge of a dramatic return to the Test captaincy as the Indian cricket team finds itself at a critical juncture ahead of the fifth anoud final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.

According to a report from The Times of India, Rohit is ‘unlikely’ to be part of the Indian Test setup after the series against Australia; however, he may not announce his retirement from the format immediately. Rohit can hold off on such a decision to avoid exacerbating the already tense atmosphere in the team.

Rohit Sharma has come under fierce criticism for his recent poor form with the bat, while his leadership has also come under heavy scrutiny in the aftermath of India's home Test series loss to New Zealand.

After a tough loss to Australia, cricket legends Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma might need to step aside for a struggling India Test team that needs to transition.

India’s captain has been out of form during the series in Australia and his inclusion in the decisive Sydney test is in doubt

India's Test captain, Rohit Sharma, will be 'rested' for the fifth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, with pacer Jasprit Bumrah expected to lead the team in his absence at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on Friday morning.

Netizens are divided over reports on Virat Kohli's potential return as captain for India's final Test against Australia, amid Rohit Sharma's uncertain future.

After head coach Gautam Gambhir remained non-committal about Rohit Sharma’s place in India’s Playing XI for the Sydney Test, a report in The Indian Express claimed that India’s red-ball captain has decided to rest himself from the fifth Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
