T20 World Cup nearing, but Rohit and Kohli must choose their battles wisely

Hindustan Times  

It’s been just over a year since Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli played a Twenty20 International, in the doomed World Cup semifinal against England in Adelaide. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli during the T20 World Cup 2022 Neither Rohit nor his predecessor figure in either of the white-ball squads. Perhaps, the celebrated duo and the other decision-makers – reappointed head coach Rahul Dravid and the national selection panel – have decided it’s time to move on and invest in fresh blood as India target their first T20 World Cup title since 2007. One of the primary reasons for the extension of Dravid’s tenure as head coach is the T20 World Cup; for India to stand any chance of ending a 10-year wait for an ICC trophy, there must be supreme clarity in thinking, in developing a style of play, a brand of cricket that will give them the best shot at success.
