The Indian Express understands that Rohit has informed coach Gautam Gambhir and chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar of his decision to opt-out. The duo, it is learnt, have agreed.

This could also mean that the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne could have been Rohit’s last for India given he might not be in the scheme of things for the next World Test Championship Cycle, which begins with a tour to England in the summer. It is unlikely that India will qualify for the WTC final in the current cycle.

Bumrah. Rohit Sharma's test career is over

My understanding, Rohit yet to retire, so he may play as player without burden of captainship for next one year

Agreed but selectors would go for rohit as a perfect way for retirement match

My understanding, Rohit yet to retire, so he may play as player without burden of captainship for next one year

In test ? Or in ODIs if in odis who will captain as due to workload management bumrah is not perfect fit for captaincy

I think he won't announce it now. He will announce retirement from all formats after CT.
