Ending speculations over his Ranji Trophy participation, India Test and ODI captain Rohit Sharma confirmed he will take part in the country’s top-flight red-ball competition. Rohit will be part of Mumbai’s playing XI for the game against J&K that starts from January 23.
“I will (play),” Rohit said on Saturday when quizzed over his participation.
Rohit, one of India’s finest batters of modern era, last played a Ranji match in November 2015.

He though explained that the reason behind India players not regularly featuring in domestic cricket is because of them needing time to recover from the packed international calendar.
The development comes after Rohit came under heavy criticism for his poor run with the bat during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
