After the failure of the T20 series against England, there has been a demand to drop Virat Kohli from Team India. Former Indian captain Kapil Dev has also said that if a bowler like Ashwin can be out of India's Test team, then why can't Virat Kohli be dropped from the T20 team. In response to this, current Indian captain Virat Kohli has said that he is watching the match sitting outside and he does not know what is happening inside the team. Rohit further said who are these expert people, why are they called experts. They are watching the game from the outside, they have no idea what is going on inside.
Virat has been able to score only 12 runs in two T20 matches against England. Replying to Kapil Dev after the second match, Rohit Sharma said, "He is sitting outside watching the match and he does not know what is happening inside. We have our thinking. We make our team very thoughtfully. We Support the players and give them opportunities. Sitting outside you don't know these things. So what is happening outside is not important, but what is happening inside is very important for us."
Rohit further said that if you talk about form then every player goes through ups and downs. This does not affect the ability of the player. So we should keep all these things in our minds. When a player has been playing well for so many years, one or two series doesn't make him a bad player. We must not forget his past performance. In the team we are in, we know the importance of players. They have every right to talk about it, but it doesn't matter much to us.
What did Kapil Dev say?
Kapil Dev had said that if a bowler like Ravichandran Ashwin can be kept out of the Test team, then why can't Virat be dropped from the T20 team. He had said, "If Ashwin, the world's second Test bowler, can be out of the Test team, then your number one batsman can also be out of the team. If he is not performing well then you can keep these young players from the team. Can't keep out. I hope there should be a good fight for Chanay. Youngsters should try to do better than Kohli. But Virat needs to think. Yes, I was a big player once. But now I have to do it again. I need to play like the number one player. It is a team problem and it is not a bad problem."
Rohit became a fan of Suryakumar
Talking about Suryakumar Yadav's 117-run innings, Rohit Sharma said, "When you chase a big target and come to the crease and bat in the way he did, then the player gets to know how capable he is." We had three wickets down and we wanted that partnership to be as long as possible. He did almost everything right today. It was disappointing that he didn't stay at the crease till the end, but that didn't detract from his innings. You don't see that kind of innings every day. We as a team take it with both hands. He has shots all around the field. Very few batsmen have this ability. A player like him in the team. It's a pleasure for us to be."
Winning the series in England boosts confidence
Rohit further said that winning the series in England has boosted the morale of the team. There were not many players in the first match, they came back in the second match and there were few players in the third match as well. The T20 world cup is coming. We have to change the players and prepare them. To prepare them, we have to give them opportunities so that they can realize their potential. When you have already won a match and series, it is the best time to give chances to such players. We have seen him in the IPL, where he has done well, but in international cricket, the pressure and plans are different.
