Virat Kohli News / Will Kohli not play T20 World Cup? Surprising news came

Virat Kohli News: Virat Kohli is 35 years old and even at this age, he is so fit that he can make a place in any team of the world. In such a situation, the news that is coming is a bit surprising. It is being said that Virat Kohli will not be seen playing in the T20 World Cup to be held in West Indies and America next year. This is because he is not getting a place in the team. It is being told that this was also discussed in the meeting of BCCI selectors held on November 30, where Rahul Dravid was also present. In that meeting, Virat Kohli's future in T20 International was also discussed.

Let us tell you that Virat Kohli, the batsman who scored the most runs in the ODI World Cup 2023, has taken a break from the white ball series being played in South Africa. For this reason, his name is not in both the T20I and ODI series played there. But, now if media reports are to be believed, he cannot be a part of the T20 World Cup 2024 team.

Why can't Virat Kohli play T20 World Cup? know the reason

Now the question is why did this happen? So the answer to this question lies in the report which is currently in the headlines. According to the report, Virat Kohli is not getting a place in Team India for T20 World Cup 2024. This seems to be happening because of Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, whom BCCI is considering as India's new opening pair in T20 International.

Rohit will captain the team in which there is no place for Virat.

However, BCCI is ready to give the command of the same team to 36 year old Rohit Sharma in the team in which there is no place for Virat Kohli. There is news that Rohit Sharma can be seen captaining the Indian team in the T20 World Cup 2024. Well, there is nothing wrong in this. Rohit has proved himself as captain. But, it seems a bit difficult to digest the fact that Virat Kohli will not play. And, there is a reason for this too.

Virat's dominance in T20 International

Virat Kohli is the highest run scorer in men's T20 cricket. He is the only men's player who has scored 4000 or more runs in T20 International. Virat Kohli's strike rate in T20 International career is 138. Not only this, he has more than 38 fifty plus scores, so if you compare him with other players, he will be seen standing far ahead. In such a situation, the news of Virat Kohli not playing in the T20 World Cup 2024 is surprising.
