Virat Kohli has allegedly requested clarification on his participation in the T20 World Cup in 2024. The BCCI selection committee is reportedly considering him as an opener alongside Rohit Sharma.
With only a few weeks until the T20 World Cup 2024 roster is finalised, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) allegedly met with skipper Rohit Sharma, head coach Rahul Dravid, and selection committee chief Ajit Agarkar in Mumbai. Several positions are up for grabs, including the talisman Virat Kohli and all-rounder Hardik Pandya. The controversy surrounding Kohli’s strike rate has only grown as the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 has progressed, while Hardik’s poor batting performance and infrequent bowling stints have left much to be desired.
Virat wants clarity on his role in the next T20 World Cup, according to reports from the BCCI meeting in Mumbai. With Yashasvi Jaiswal struggling in the IPL, Kohli has been asked to open alongside skipper Rohit in the showpiece tournament that begins in June, according to a Dainik Jagaran report.
Virat opens consistently for his IPL side, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and is now the top-scoring batter. As a result, the selection committee believes the senior batter is most suited to the opportunity. Shubman Gill, who has also been in good form this season, is allegedly being considered as a backup opening option for the T20 World Cup.
