Virat Kohli is a social media sensation. He took to Instagram to share a picture of his family ahead of the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Kohli captioned the image, “Rabba bakshiyan tu enniyan meherbaniyan, hor terto kuch ni mangda, bas tera shukar ada kardan”. This translates to wishing blessings from the almighty for his daughter and that he is very grateful for it.
The image shows Kohli and Anushka Sharma holding hands with their daughter Vamika side by side as they walk her on the beach. Kohli, who was not a part of the T20I series against Sri Lanka, will make a return to the ODIs against the Islanders. With the ODI World Cup coming up in India in 2023, he will be looking to get into the rhythm in 50 overs cricket.
For us, to play Sri Lanka was a great experience in T20s- Rahul Dravid
There are reports doing the rounds that the Indian Team management wants a reset in T20 cricket and that they are planning to phase out Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Rahul Dravid’s recent comments on the same during the second T20I have given an indication that it will happen.
“For us, obviously, from the last semi-final (2022 T20 World Cup) that we played against England, only 3-4 boys are playing in the XI (vs Sri Lanka). We are slightly in a different stage of looking at the next cycle of T20, so ours is a slightly younger team and for us to play against the quality of Sri Lanka is a fantastic experience. The good thing is that a lot of focus is on the ODI World Cup and World Test Championship, so the T20s give us the opportunity to try out these guys,” as quoted by News 18.
Former chairman of selectors Dilip Vengsarkar had a different take on the matter. “Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have done great service to Indian cricket, They are extremely fit and both have a lot of cricket left in them. I think when there’s an important event, they will be back in India T20 team,” He had told the media.
