Rohit Sharma met the CM of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis: “For Next Chapter…”

Indian veteran player Rohit Sharma recently announced his retirement from Test cricket. He said goodbye to the smallest format of the game after becoming India’s champion in the T20 World Cup 2024. That is, Hitmans will now be seen representing ODI format for India and Mumbai Indians in IPL only.

Meanwhile, about a week after the announcement of his Test retirement, Rohit Sharma arrived at his house to meet Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, whose pictures are going viral.

Rohit Sharma played 67 Test matches for India

Announcing his Test retirement on Instagram on 7 May 2025, Rohit Sharma wrote, “Hello, I just want to share that I am retiring from Test cricket. It is a matter of respect for me to represent my country in White Jersey. Thank you all for the love and support received over the years. I will continue to represent India in ODI format.”

Rohit Sharma’s sudden decision made his fans emotional. He played his last Test against Australia in Melbourne during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. Rohit played 67 matches for India in his Test career, scoring 4301 runs at an average of 40.57, including 12 centuries and 18 half -centuries.

Just after Rohit’s Test retirement, Virat Kohli also announced his retirement from the longest format of the game. Filling the place of these two veterans in the Test team is going to be a big challenge for Indian management.
