[WATCH] Rohit Sharma arrives in Kolkata for this work amidst preparation for India's ODI series in Australia

Rohit Sharma has been in a great mood ahead of India’s three-match away ODI series against Australia down under. He recently was in Bengaluru for the fitness test at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru as he looks to keep himself fully fit and in rhythm for the upcoming 2027 ODI World Cup in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.

Rohit, in between his fitness tests, also found time to share some viral experiences and gave lessons to the Under-19 Indian players ahead of their Australia series, which started on September 21 at the Ian Healy Oval in Brisbane. Apart from this, the Mumbai batter has walked into Kolkata on Sunday morning.

A video has gone viral where Rohit has been seen outside the airport in Kolkata. It has been revealed that the ODI captain of the Indian side has some advertisement work with Kapil Dev and MS Dhoni, two World Cup-winning Indian captains, which means those veterans are also anticipated to arrive in the city of Joy.

Rohit has overall smashed 11168 runs in 265 innings at an average of 48.77 and a strike rate of 92.80 with the help of 32 centuries and 58 half-centuries at the best score of 264 runs. That knock came at the Eden Gardens against Sri Lanka. On that ground, the right-handed batter has accumulated 328 runs in four innings at a strike rate of 141.38.

When it comes to his record at the venue in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for the Mumbai Indians on most occasions, Rohit has clubbed 485 runs in 14 innings at an average of 44.09 and a strike rate of 138.97 with three fifties and one century at the best score of 109 runs.

The veteran was also seen practicing at the nets in Mumbai. He has already retired from the longest and shortest formats of the game, and this upcoming Australia series could potentially be his return to action after five months.
