In his absence, Shikhar Dhawan and Hardik Pandya are leading the Indian team against New Zealand in the three-match T20I series and ODI series, respectively. Notably, Rohit was clearly visible in tears following the embarrassing debacle of the Indian team in the second semi-final against England during the 20-20 World Cup 2022.

This is encouraging.

Good to see some weight reduction there.

Hopefully he'll maintain the weight in the long term.

Really want to see his 2019 body back. https://t.co/h2vLXSqeqk
