Despite Rohit Sharma's struggles, it could not do enough to tarnish his respect in front of the opponents, as seen with Brydon Carse removing his cap while shaking hands with Rohit Sharma. Removing the cap is usually marked as a gesture of showing respect, and with that, Carse has earned a lot of respect from the Indian fans. This happened in the Vidarbha Cricket Association stadium in Nagpur on February 6, during the first ODI against England, when players from both teams were shaking hands during the post-match gesture exchange. In a recently viral video, it was seen that while Rohit Sharma was meeting the England players, the fast bowler Carse took off his cap before shaking his hand.

In the first ODI against England on February 6, 2025, Sharma was dismissed for just 2 runs, continuing a series of low scores. This recent dismissal has intensified discussions about his form and future in international cricket. Over the past year, especially after the 2024 T20 World Cup win, Rohit Sharma's batting struggles are visible. After the England Test series in early 2024, there was hardly a batting show in the Tests and ODIs as well. Even Sharma's batting average in ODIs has significantly dipped, adding more tension on the eve of the Champions Trophy. In the home Test series against New Zealand, he managed only one half-century across six innings, contributing to India's series losses. Not only that, he could not put on a show in Australia, finally sidelining himself from the final Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy, citing off-form issues. Despite these challenges, Sharma remains a pivotal figure in Indian cricket. Head coach Gautam Gambhir has emphasized Sharma's importance, stating that both he and Virat Kohli "add so much value to the dressing room" and are expected to play "a massive role" in the upcoming Champions Trophy. Even though Rohit Sharma had waved off possibilities of immediate retirement, a negative result in the CT2025 can be a final call for his tenure. Notably, he had returned to domestic cricket in an effort to regain his form ahead of crucial international fixtures but failed again before taking charge as a captain in the ODI Series against England.
