I have spoken to the secretary Mr Jay Shah and the President of BCCI Mr Sourav Ganguly along with all the selectors about the same. I will continue to serve Indian Cricket and the Indian Team to the best of my ability.”
He also thanked everyone for their support during his journey as the Captain of the Indian Cricket Team. Meanwhile, among those who were back in the Test squad alongside Rohit Sharma, were Rishabh Pant, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami.
