The T20 World Cup to be held in UAE is very important for the Indian cricket team and BCCI. The Indian team wants to win this T20 World Cup, which is going to be hosted by BCCI.

Even now it has come to the fore that this mega event is like a deadline for the captaincy of Virat Kohli, as he is going to leave the limited-overs captaincy after this. Such reports have come to the fore.

BCCI has already expressed its intentions to win the T20 World Cup, because along with the selection of Team India, BCCI has also included former captain, MS Dhoni, as a mentor, whose cricketing mind is considered to be vicious.

However, now according to the report of TOI, Virat Kohli is going to resign from the limited-overs captaincy after the T20 World Cup, and Rohit Sharma is expected to get the command of ODIs and T20s.

The source added, “Captaincy in all three formats is affecting Virat Kohli’s batting. That’s why BCCI has been planning it for a long time.”

“This is why Virat Kohli shares leadership with Rohit Sharma in white-ball cricket. In the end, Virat and Rohit are on the same page.”

Captain Kohli has been tainted in that he has not yet won the ICC trophy nor has he been able to win any major tournament.

Virat Kohli captained the team in the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy, in which India lost in the final.

At the same time, India was defeated in the semi-finals of the 2019 ODI World Cup, while India could not win the final of the World Test Championship held this year under his captaincy.

Although Virat Kohli’s figures as a batsman as a captain are tremendous, in the last few years it has been seen in his batting.
