IND vs AUS Test Series: The Indian team has to play the last match of the 5-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia from January 3 at the Sydney Cricket Ground. A big change is certain in Team India's playing 11 for this match, in which Rohit Sharma may be out of this match, in which fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah will once again be seen taking over the captaincy of the team in his place. Under the captaincy of Bumrah, the Indian team won the first match of this series, which was played at the Perth Stadium, by 295 runs, while after this Rohit Sharma took over the captaincy from the second match, in which out of the three matches played after that, Team India had to face defeat in 2, while one match ended in a draw.

Rohit informed the head coach and team management about his decision

Rohit Sharma himself has decided to stay out of Team India's playing 11 from the Sydney Test, in which according to the report of Indian Express, he has informed the team management and head coach as well as chief selector Ajit Agarkar and they have also accepted this decision of Rohit. From this, it can now also be guessed that Rohit has also played his last Test match which was at the Melbourne Cricket Ground because Team India, whose chances of reaching the final of the World Test Championship 2023-25 ​​look very difficult, has to play its next Test series in England which will be played from June to August. In such a situation, looking at the future team, it is difficult for Rohit to return to the Test team again.

Shubman Gill's return to playing 11 is certain

While Rohit Sharma will be out of the playing 11 in the Sydney Test match, Shubman Gill is expected to return in his place, who did not play in the Melbourne Test match. In such a situation, Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul will be seen once again in the opening, while Gill will take responsibility at number-3. Apart from this, another change in the Indian team which is certain is that Prasidh Krishna can get a place in place of unfit bowler Akash Deep.
