Shocking! Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma Fighting? New Captain?
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,July 16 2019]
Post the loss in the World Cup semifinals, another concerning matter has come to light. There are possibilities that there is a rift between Indian Captain Virat Kohli and vice-captain Rohit Sharma. The rumours about this split will be discussed in a review meeting that will be held shortly. The BCCI will have to look into this immediately. A board functionary reported: “You are aware that Vinod Rai (CoA chief) has already mentioned that a review meeting will take place. This will have to be ascertained when the review takes place and it is important to get to the bottom of these rumours.”
Kohli and Rohit have known to have had differences regarding team members playing in the IPL just before the World Cup. Now another possibility has also emerged. Rohit may be announced as captain for the shorter formats while Kohli continues to lead in Tests. The functionary said: “This would be the right time for Rohit to take over the mantle of the captaincy in the 50-over format. There has been immense support to the present captain and the management and it is time to plan ahead for the next World Cup and for that the existing ideas and plans need a fresh look. We all know some areas need a re-look. Rohit would be the right man for the job.” Do you agree with that? Can the Hitman lead the nation?
