Former India wicketkeeper Deep Dasgupta criticizes public speculation about Rohit Sharma’s future after retirement rumors circulated following Rohit’s early dismissal in the second ODI. Dasgupta says he is “really angry” about the uncertainty being created around senior players and argues that selectors should not allow such narratives to influence team decisions. Both reports describe how the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) rejects the retirement claims as baseless. Rohit responds to the doubts by scoring a century, which the reports present as a direct rebuttal to the speculation. Dasgupta’s comments emphasize that selection should be grounded in current performance and contributions to the team rather than off-field headlines. The reports agree that the controversy centers on how quickly speculation spreads after a single match event, and on whether administrators and selectors should work to prevent similar uncertainty from recurring for established players.
