Rohit Sharma Silences Critics With Blazing Century — Srikkanth Backs Him For 2027 World Cup!

Rohit Sharma has once again proved why he’s one of the finest batters of this generation. Despite recent talks about his future after losing the ODI captaincy, the veteran opener produced a masterclass against Australia, scoring a stunning unbeaten 121 in the third ODI to seal victory for India. His fluent stroke play, calm temperament, and fitness transformation caught everyone’s attention, including former India cricketer Krishnamachari Srikkanth.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Srikkanth praised Rohit’s form and declared him a certain pick for the 2027 World Cup. “Rohit has lost 11 kgs and looks super fit. He’s batting with the same rhythm we saw in the 2019 World Cup. Forget age—his class is timeless,” he said.

Srikkanth also urged the BCCI to retain both Rohit and Virat Kohli for the next World Cup, calling them “irreplaceable pillars” of Indian cricket. With back-to-back standout performances, Rohit has silenced all critics, reminding fans and selectors alike that experience still wins matches.
