The Rohit Sharma fitness update is something that has been a keen topic of interest among many Indian cricket fans for a while. The Indian limited-overs vice-captain sustained a hamstring injury during the Dream11 Indian Premier League 2020 (IPL 2020) season in October, thus prompting the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to rule him out of the ODI and T20I series in Australia. As per a report by ANI, the cricketer has now passed the fitness test after he underwent rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru.
