India’s first COVID-19 wave refuses to die down. The consistent fall observed in India’s daily count of cases and deaths between mid-September and October-end, did not persist in November. Lately, many States’ case curves have shown fluctuations, with a week of steady rise followed by a week of consistent decline in new cases, thereby keeping the national curve constant.

But Rohit played three matches in the Indian Premier League (IPL) after being advised two weeks rest because of his hamstring injury.

He then went to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) for rehab rather than flying to Australia with the rest of the Indian players. But it hasn’t stopped the speculations regarding the whole ordeal.
