Rohit Sharma's potential final ODI and Shubman Gill's record‑breaking innings in England series
India's senior batsman Rohit Sharma, 39, is expected to play what could be his last One‑Day International in the third match of the India‑England series on 19 July at Lord's. The selection committee has met with Sharma and coach Gautam Gambhir to discuss plans for the 2027 World Cup, indicating a move toward younger players such as Jasprit Bumrah. Sharma has already retired from T20 and Test formats, and may announce his ODI retirement after this game.
In the opening ODI at Edgbaston, India captain Shubman Gill scored 80 runs from 75 balls, hitting 11 fours and a six. His total of 510 runs at the venue broke Virat Kohli's previous record for the most runs by an Indian captain at a single England ground, making Gill the first Indian leader to surpass 500 runs at one stadium. The innings helped India secure a six‑wicket victory, though Gill later left the field due to a muscle strain.
