Rohit Sharma takes the field again for India's second ODI against Afghanistan on Wednesday at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow, having battled fitness concerns in the lead-up to this series.
However, he successfully cleared the necessary tests to earn a Required to Play certificate from the BCCI's Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru.
The veteran opener has made his intentions clear; he wants a place in the 2027 World Cup squad and is doing everything possible to give selectors and head coach Gautam Gambhir no reason to leave him out.
With roughly 16 months remaining before that tournament, every innings over this period carries weight for his case.

However, in the first ODI, he could not make a big score after he was run out for 16 runs. A misunderstanding with Shubman Gill brought his downfall, and Rohit grudgingly walked back to the dressing room.
Rohit is expected to open the innings along with Shubman Gill.
