Confirming the news of his return following a successful surgery and rehabilitation, Rohit announced via his Twitter account of his availability for the final two matches of the Vijay Hazare Trophy on March 4 and 6.

Earlier, Rohit was not picked for the first two Tests of the ongoing four-match series against Australia which began on February 23 in Pune. He was also not a part of India's Test, ODI and T20 triumphs against England, having undergone a thigh surgery in London after suffering an injury in the final ODI against New Zealand last year. Rohit was also not included in the team for the lone Test against Bangladesh which India won by 208 runs.
