Rohit Sharma, often known as the Hitman, has been one of the crown jewels of Indian cricket for more than a decade now. From record double centuries in ODIs to him being a captain in the 2023 ODI World Cup and 2024 T20 World Cup, his contributions to Indian cricket cannot be ignored. If he retires, he would leave an impeccable legacy as being one of the greatest-ever batters and captains for India. 

If Rohit Sharma indeed decides to retire, this will not only mark the end of an era for Indian cricket, but this will signal a great loss of experience on captaincy, aggressive batting which helped in achieving stability in India's success. The team management will have to look for a new captain and an opening batter to fill in the shoes of captain Sharma.
