SYDNEY: Was it a good decision? Was it the right decision? Who took it? Did he opt out? Was he forced out? Will he call it quits?

The questions had been never-ending and with the Indian cricket team working in its regular secret service mode, there was no way to know the real answers to them. In a way, this Sydney Test has been about Rohit Sharma without him actually playing a part in it.

All the talk in the lead up was about why the India skipper was missing. It started on the eve of the game with a Gautam Gambhir press conference and the issue should finally be put to rest after Rohit spoke to Star Sports in an interview during lunch time on Day 2 of the final Test.

There have been various theories doing the rounds but Rohit dismissed them all with a trademark display with the mic in hand. "This decision is not a retirement decision," he said. "Nor am I going to take myself out of the game.
