Rohit Sharma will be ODI captain also. BCCI on Wednesday announced that Rohit Sharma will take over from Virat Kohli as the captain of India's ODI team as well. Rohit was appointed as full-time T20I skipper after Kohli decided to step down from the role after India's T20 World Cup campaign. The announcement comes on the day the board announced India's squad for the three Test series starting December 26. Several floating reports in the media suggested that the change in guard was inevitable, before the board decided to end the suspense with a tweet.

Rohit has led India in 10 ODIs, out of which the team won eight. The biggest achievement of Rohit's ODI captaincy came in 2018, when in Kohli's absence, India won the Asia Cup in the UAE, beating Bangladesh in the final. The team won all its league matches, barring a thrilling tie against Afghanistan.
