The BCCI wants Rohit Sharma to make up his mind about his future, while Virat Kohli is set to receive a longer rope.

While the BCCI selectors have reportedly asked India captain Rohit Sharma to communicate his future plans after the Champions Trophy 2025, no such communication has been made to Virat Kohli as the they remain confident about his future.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and its selectors have asked Indian cricket team captain, Rohit Sharma, to explain his future plans post the ICC Champions Trophy. This comes as part of Team India's plans to prepare for the 2027 ODI World Cup and transition in Test cricket.

India captain Rohit Sharma might not have another option but to take a call on his future after the conclusion of the ICC Champions Trophy.

Rohit Sharma has been given a clear directive from the BCCI as he prepares for the upcoming ODI series against England and the ICC Champions Trophy.

Although Kohli had a quiet showing in the Sri Lanka ODIs last year, with only 58 runs across three innings, his overall record remains a testament to his skill and consistency. Both Rohit and Virat are determined to bounce back and find their rhythm in the upcoming ODI series against England, as they look to lead India to further success.

The BCCI selectors are keen to secure a long-term opening option for Team India and perhaps a fresh leadership option as well.

India’s Champions Trophy campaign begins on February 20. Before that they will play a three-match ODI series against England. This series will be a chance for Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli to get into form before the big event.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is looking at the bigger picture now and has asked skipper Rohit Sharma do decide on his future plans after the upcoming 2025 Champions Trophy. The Indian skipper is under heavy scrutiny for his inexplicable loos of form for quite some time now.
