Virat Kohli & Rohit Sharma's Return To Action: Check Schedule

There’s a strong possibility that both senior players will feature in the ODI leg of Bangladesh tour, with Rohit Sharma likely to lead the side.

With IPL 2025 concluding in spectacular fashion as Royal Challengers Bangalore lifted their maiden trophy, the focus now shifts to India’s upcoming tour of England.

The Men in Blue are set to play a five-match Test series starting June 20. However, two of India’s most celebrated cricketers—Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma—won’t be part of the squad.

Both players recently announced their retirement from Test and T20I cricket, leaving fans eager to know when they will return to competitive action.

Next Assignment: ODI Series in Bangladesh

Kohli and Rohit are expected to return to international cricket in August 2025, when India tours Bangladesh for a limited-overs series. This will be their first outing since retiring from two formats. The ODI series is scheduled to begin after India’s Test tour of England concludes on August 4.
