Cricket fans got a shock of 440 volts! Virat Kohli suddenly out of Afghanistan series, this big reason came to light after playing
For Indian cricket fans, a very disappointing and big news is coming out from the cricket field. Team India’s run-machine and veteran batsman Virat Kohli will not be seen playing in the upcoming three-match ODI series against Afghanistan. After the exhausting season of IPL that ended recently, his hamstring problem has increased a lot. Due to this serious injury, the doctors and medical team have strictly advised him to take complete rest.
The medical staff of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) does not want to take any major risks regarding Virat Kohli’s fitness and his injury, considering the extremely busy schedule of cricket. This is the biggest reason why the selectors and team management have taken a big decision with mutual consent to keep him away from this entire ODI series. Now in the absence of Kohli, the entire responsibility of handling the middle order of Indian batting will fall on the shoulders of the young batsmen of the team, for whom this will be a big opportunity to prove themselves at the international level.
A cloud of suspense loomed over captain Rohit Sharma’s play.
While on one hand it is completely certain that Virat Kohli will be out of this series, on the other hand there is still a situation of suspense and doubt over the playing of regular captain Rohit Sharma. Actually, during the IPL matches, Rohit Sharma was also continuously struggling with his fitness problem. Although, the selectors have included him in the squad of the Indian team for this upcoming series, but whether he will actually take the field to play or not will entirely depend on the report of his fitness test to be conducted just before the start of the match.
The young lions of Team India have a golden opportunity to shine.
This bilateral series against Afghanistan is being considered very important and special in terms of preparations for the upcoming ICC tournaments. Due to the absence of King Kohli in the team, the pressure on experienced senior players like Shreyas Iyer or KL Rahul to score runs in the middle order will increase significantly. Along with this, the Indian team management can include some new, aggressive and in-form young faces in the playing eleven to fill this void. This will be a great and golden opportunity for Team India to test its bench strength through this series.
Note down the date, when and where this competition will take place.
This exciting ODI series between India and Afghanistan is going to start from June 13. The first match of this series will be played on the beautiful and cold grounds of Dharamshala, while the remaining matches will be held in Lucknow and different cities of the country. For your information, let us tell you that just before the start of this high-voltage ODI series, a historic test match is to be played between the two countries from June 6, on which the eyes of all cricket lovers are fixed.
