The Melbourne Test match against Australia was probably the last appearance of Rohit Sharma in whites for Team India
However, the absence of Rohit Sharma from the Melbourne Test might have been sugarcoated by terming "opted to rest" by everyone, but the skipper's rough patch is not something to hide behind
Unfortunately, the next Test match that India will play if they don't qualify for the World Test Championship (WTC) final is against England from June 18-22 in Leeds
So, what does Rohit have in his calendar if he does not get picked for Test matches? Three ODIs against visiting England and the Champions Trophy before the IPL
Once the Champions Trophy is over, the next ODI bilateral rubber is against Bangladesh in August, and the ODI World Cup is in South Africa in 2027
If Team India skipper Rohit decides to draw curtains on his illustrious career any day, soon, the Champions Trophy could be the perfect international swansong for a stalwart like him
If India happens to win the event, Rohit will be the only captain apart from Mahendra Singh Dhoni to win two ICC events as captain
