Rohit Sharma has been confirmed as the captain of the Indian cricket team for the upcoming ODI series against England and the ICC Champions Trophy, as per News18. This comes amid concerns over his recent performance, with an average of just 31.18 across all formats in 40 innings last year, as opposed to an average of 48 in the previous year.

Rohit Sharma's future has become highly uncertain after his rather disastrous run of form in the 2024/25 Test season.

Rohit Sharma's future as a player and as a captain in Test cricket is in doubt following the series loss against Australia.

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.

Australia skipper Pat Cummins also made gains in the rankings, climbing to number two after picking up five wickets in the final match. South Africa's Kagiso Rabada rose a spot to occupy the third place while injured Josh Hazlewood moved down two places to be fourth.

India surrendered the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after seven years following a disappointing campaign that concluded in Sydney. The team unravelled after their loss in Melbourne, and Jasprit Bumrah's absence denied them the opportunity to push for a series-levelling win in Sydney.

The Champions Trophy is set to be played after an eight-year hiatus. With the 2025 tournament round the corner, several players would be anticipated to come good with their performances in the marquee tournament.

One of the biggest talking points emerging from India's disastrous tour of Australia, where the side lost 1-3 to concede the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the first time in a decade, has been the future of India skipper Rohit Sharma and whether he would remain the captain even if he gets picked for the England tour.
