Gautam Gambhir has raised doubts about Rohit Sharma's inclusion in India's playing XI for the upcoming Sydney Test. Speaking to the media, Gambhir, who is currently India's head coach, did not confirm whether Sharma, the team captain, would feature in the crucial match. "Everything is fine with Rohit, and the head coach is here to answer questions. That should be enough," Gambhir said, avoiding direct comments on Sharma's selection. Sharma has been struggling with poor form throughout the series, scoring just 31 runs in six innings. His recent performances have sparked debates over whether he should be included in the final match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, where India trails 2-1. Gambhir mentioned that the final decision will depend on the pitch conditions, saying, "We’ll look at the wicket and announce the playing XI tomorrow." The Sydney Test is critical for India as they aim to level the series and retain the trophy. Fans and experts are now waiting to see if the team management will back Sharma despite his recent struggles or make a bold call to replace him in the lineup.
