Forecast reasoning
Rohit Sharma played his last ODI on October 3, 2026, and was included in the West Indies squad in September 2026, but selectors signaled in July 2026 they wanted to move on from him for the 2027 World Cup. A hamstring injury requiring secret rehabilitation at the BCCI Centre of Excellence after IPL 2026 raises fitness concerns with 13 months until the tournament.
Settlement
Resolution criteria: - "Yes": Wins if Rohit Sharma appears in at least one official ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2027 match as a player for India — whether in the playing XI or as a confirmed substitute — in a match played strictly after 2026-10-06T11:39:25.251Z and at or before 2027-11-21T23:59:00.000Z. - "No": Wins if Rohit Sharma does not appear in any official ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2027 match as a player for India in any match played strictly after 2026-10-06T11:39:25.251Z and at or before 2027-11-21T23:59:00.000Z — including if he was not selected in India's squad, withdrew due to injury or retirement, or was otherwise absent for the duration of the tournament covered by the window. Clarifications: - "Appears in a match" means Rohit Sharma is officially listed in India's confirmed playing XI or takes the field as a substitute in that match, as recorded in the official ICC match scorecard. - The 2027 ICC Men's ODI World Cup runs from 2 October to 21 November 2027 (Super Series from Oct 2; group stage from Oct 4; final on Nov 21), hosted across South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia; only matches falling within the window above are counted.
