'We are white-ball bullies. If we beat Pakistan on Feb 23...': Harsh reality exposed on Ranji demand from Kohli, Rohit

Hindustan Times  

There has been quite an uproar among experts and veteran cricketers who could not have stressed more on the need for the likes of under-fire Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma to feature in the upcoming second half of the 2024/25 Ranji Trophy season, which will begin later this month, in a bid to find form after a disastrous tour of Australia. India's Virat Kohli speaks with teammates Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant on the first day of the fourth cricket Test match between Australia and India India were hammered 1-3 in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series as they conceded the title for the first time in eight years. Despite the uproar, Kaif said that with the schedule getting tiresome for these national team players, it often seems logical to opt for a rest and hence players like Kohli and Rohit could miss the Ranji season again. Kohli and Rohit had earlier missed the first half of the Ranji season, in October, down to the same reason, although there was much criticism when they skipped the Duleep Trophy in September, ahead of the start of the Test calendar, despite having no or limited assignment since the T20 World Cup win in June.
