Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma is likely to extend his break from cricket as he is reportedly unavailable for the ODI series against Sri Lanka, starting on August 2. After the conclusion of the ongoing T20I series against Zimbabwe, the Men in Blue will travel to Sri Lanka for three T20Is and as many ODIs.
