Rohit, Kohli On Verge Of Returning For ODIs As Squads For Australia Tour Set To Be Picked

By IANS News October 03, 2025 • 21:12 PM View: 352

Stalwarts Rohit Sharma: Stalwarts Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are on the verge of returning to India’s ODI setup as the Ajit Agarkar-led selection committee prepares to announce squads for the upcoming white-ball tour of Australia.

Both senior batters, who last featured for India in the triumphant 2025 Champions Trophy campaign, had stepped away from T20Is after a winning 2024 T20 World Cup campaign and retired from Test cricket in May this year.

IANS understands that the two squads could be picked by the selectors on Saturday, but its announcement timing depends on when the first Test against the West Indies at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is over.
