BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia dismissed Rohit Sharma's retirement rumours, prompting mixed reactions online. Fans called it "a massive sigh of relief" and "good news" for Rohit's 2027 World Cup hopes. Others insisted, "I'll believe it when Rohit says it himself," while many argued the phrase "as long as he is in the scheme of things" leaves his ODI future uncertain.
