This development comes as a major boost for fans of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who remain the biggest draws in the 50-over format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the countdown to the 2027 World Cup in South Africa begins, international cricket boards from nations like New Zealand, England, Sri Lanka, and Ireland have reportedly approached the BCCI with a special request. These boards are keen to swap a few T20Is for additional ODIs during India&#8217;s upcoming tours. The primary motivation is commercial; with Rohit and Virat focusing exclusively on the 50-over format, their presence guarantees packed stadiums and record-breaking viewership, providing a financial windfall for the host nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BCCI sources indicate that the board is inclined to accept these proposals to ensure the veteran duo gets ample match practice before their potential swan song in 2027. By trimming T20I legs and expanding ODI series, the BCCI aims to keep its key stalwarts in peak physical and mental condition for the ICC trophy hunt. The revamped schedule is expected to kick off from the Afghanistan series in June 2026, marking the official start of &#8220;Mission 2027&#8221; for the modern-day legends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a move that has sent waves of excitement through the cricketing community, the BCCI is reportedly considering a significant increase in the number of One Day Internationals (ODIs) ahead of the 2027 World Cup.
