There are reports that Kohli may lose his captain’s armband from white ball and Rohit Sharma may be invited to lead the team with restrictions if the team fails to win the ICC T20 World Cup to be held in the United States. United Arab Emirates and Oman in October-November this year.
However, Dhumal rejected such claims. “This is all garbage. Nothing is happening (as such). This is all you (media) are talking about. The BCCI has not met or discussed anything on this issue (captain split),” Dhumal told IANS. “Virat will remain the captain (of all formats).”
Previously, it was reported that Kohli was very successful in Test cricket, but the burden of leading the team in limited cricket could fall on Sharma due to the former’s inability to lead the team to victory in ICC events despite having had some of the best bowlers and hitters in the game.
Sources said BCCI leaders have been discussing the issue since India’s defeat to New Zealand in the World Test Championship final in England, where they were reportedly dissatisfied with the Indian skipper’s team selection. Kohli had played two spinners in overcast conditions during the WTC final.
But Dhumal said, “no such meeting took place.”
