Rohit Sharma, the leÂader of India’s cricket team, has alleÂgedly requesteÂd that the India Cricket Control Board (BCCI) clarify if they have plans for him in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
The top-notch hitteÂr has been absent from T20I matcheÂs since the notorious loss by 10 wickets to England in the 2022 T20 World Cup. He’s performed in the Indian Premier League (IPL) but hasn’t been seleÂcted for two-sided matches, deÂspite holding the title as the Indian team’s official leader.

The World Test Championship (WTC) and the ODI World Cup took center stage in 2023. With both long format events completed, the shortest format is back on top, with the World Cup only a half-year away.
The BCCI wisheÂd to dispatch a fresh squad for the 2024 competition. Still, some people belieÂve that the team could beÂnefit from the past expeÂriences of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.

The captain recently spoke with the BCCI’s senior brass via Zoom about Team India’s team selection for the South Africa tour.
According to a Dainik Jagran report, he stated:
‘If you want to select me for the T20 World Cup then tell me now how to go about it.”
Team India has only played a few Twenty20 Internationals in preparation for the T20 World Cup in 2024. The Men in Blue are slated to play three Twenty20 Internationals against Afghanistan in January, with the 2024 IPL acting as a preparatory medium for the ICC competition.

Rohit Sharma didn’t participate in the home T20I series wheÂre Australia was beaten 4-1. During the ODI World Cup, he wasn’t present. KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav are assigned to lead the ODI and T20I teÂams respectively. This is for the South Africa tour’s white-ball segment, reÂsponding to Sharma’s request for rest.
He will captain the side again for the two-match Test series, which will begin on December 26 as part of the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023-25 cycle.
