October 11, 2024: Rohit Sharma, the Indian cricket team captain, is expected to miss part of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia, which starts on November 22, 2024.
According to sources, the reason for his potential absence is due to personal commitments, although it is unclear how many matches he might miss. The BCCI has not yet made any official announcement on his availability for the series.
In Rohit's absence, India may rely on players like Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, or Abhimanyu Easwaran to fill his spot in the lineup. Easwaran, in particular, is seen as a strong candidate, having recently shown good form.
The series itself is highly anticipated, featuring five Tests starting in Perth on November 22. The second Test will be a day-night match in Adelaide from December 6 to 10, followed by games in Brisbane, Melbourne (Boxing Day Test), and Sydney.
Rohit has had a decent record in Australia, having scored 408 runs in 7 Tests at an average of 31.38. Against Australia overall, he has played 12 Tests, scoring 708 runs at an average of 33.71.
