It looks like retirement from ODIs is next on the list for Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli as the BCCI now shifts its focus to the 2027 World Cup. The veteran duo, who have retired from Tests and T20Is, will now be involved in a conversation with the board to discuss the roadmap for the team’s future. While Jasprit Bumrah is reportedly injury free and will be available for selection for the Asia Cup, a jubilant Team India returned home from England after drawing the series 2-2. On that note, let’s take a look at the top headlines from Tuesday.

BCCI to move on from Rohit-Kohli?

The BCCI aren’t sure about continuing with Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in ODIs for the 2027 World Cup. By the time the tournament starts, Rohit will be 40 and Kohli 39. The board won’t force them into retirement but will have honest conversations with them and will test youngsters as well.

Bumrah available for Asia Cup

Jasprit Bumrah will be available to play the Asia Cup 2025. It was previously reported that Bumrah had suffered a knee injury during the India vs England Test series. But it turns out that may not be correct. Since he’s fit, Bumrah will likely feature in the Asia Cup. But that might mean he could miss the West Indies Test series.

Team India back home

Team India have returned home from England after 2 months. After a well-fought series which ended at 2-2, the players will have a month’s rest before the Asia Cup 2025 begins. India head coach Gautam Gambhir has landed in Delhi and showed appreciation for his team upon arrival.

Gavaskar takes dig at Bumrah

Sunil Gavaskar has taken a dig at Jasprit Bumrah for missing 2 Test matches against England. After Mohammed Siraj played all 5 Tests and bowled 30.1 in the second innings, Gavaskar stated that workload is a mental thing instead of physical. He wants workload management to not exist anymore in Indian cricket.

Siraj, the real POTS

It turns out that Shubman Gill wasn’t supposed to get the Player of the Series award. England head coach Brendon McCullum had earlier picked Gill but changed his mind later and wanted Mohammed Siraj to receive it. But since he had already told the organisers Gill was his pick on the previous day, he was the one who got it.
