Team India: IPL 2025 is starting from March 22. The first match of IPL 2025 will be played between KKR and RCB at Eden Gardens. After IPL 2025, the Indian team (Team India) will start its international tour with a 5-match Test series against England. This Test series between India and England (England Cricket Team) will be played in June.

The Indian team has been eliminated from the final of the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25. The Indian team first faced defeat in the Test series against New Zealand at home and then against Australia at their home, due to which the Indian team (Team India) is out of the race for the final.

After the Australia tour, the demand to remove Rohit Sharma from captaincy rose

After the Indian team lost 3 matches at home and then lost 1-3 in the 5-match Test series against Australia, the demand to remove Rohit Sharma from captaincy intensified and the demand to make Jasprit Bumrah the captain and Yashasvi Jaiswal the vice-captain in his place intensified. Indian team's veteran player Rohit Sharma was dropped from the last match against Australia for this reason.

In place of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul started the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal, while Jasprit Bumrah took over the command of Team India. Since then, the demand to remove Rohit Sharma from Team India and Test captaincy had intensified. At the same time, BCCI also held a meeting for this and during this Gautam Gambhir suggested the names of Jasprit Bumrah and Yashasvi Jaiswal.

Rohit Sharma will be the captain of Team India on the England tour

There was a demand to exclude Rohit Sharma from the England tour, but as soon as the Indian team (Team India) won the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, there has been a new twist in this story. Rohit Sharma will remain the captain of the team on the England tour. The Board of Control for Cricket in India and its selection panel have supported him to remain the captain of the team for 1 more big tour.

If Rohit Sharma's performance on this tour is excellent, then Rohit Sharma will remain the captain of the team. Anyway, Rohit Sharma had made it clear on the Australia tour that he is not thinking about retirement right now. Rohit Sharma had said about the conversation with Star Sports during the 5th Test in Australia that

"Run is not coming right now, but it is not guaranteed that it will not come even after 5 months. I will work hard. But this decision is not of retirement. People sitting outside with laptop, pen and paper do not decide when retirement will come and what decisions I will have to take."
