India’s Afghanistan ODI series hasn’t even started yet, but two star players are already in the spotlight.
Fitness worries about Rohit Sharma and Hardik Pandya have caused tension before the ODI squad is announced. Fans are awaiting a key update.
Reports say both players are still waiting for medical clearance, making selectors anxious with the Afghanistan series coming up soon.
Rohit’s spot is in doubt since he hasn’t yet met BCCI’s fitness standards for ODI selection.
Hardik’s place is also uncertain as he’s dealing with lower back stiffness and fitness concerns.
With the 2027 World Cup approaching fast, selectors may avoid risks and are now considering new and backup players.
Will India stick with Rohit and Hardik, or start a big change in the ODI team? The final squad will reveal the answer.
