On Tuesday, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the Indian squad for the T20 World Cup 2024. In this mega event, Rohit Sharma will be seen leading Team India, while Virat Kohli will once again be the backbone of the Indian batting order. Both of them made a comeback in T20 International in January this year after a long time.
Fans are excited to see both the legends once again wearing the blue jersey and making a splash in the shortest format of the game. But in the meantime, the statement of the BCCI official has broken the hearts of all cricket lovers.
According to a top official of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), this is the last assignment of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in T20 International. After this, both these legends will not be made a part of Team India’s plans related to T20 cricket. Simply put, Virat and Rohit have been given hints of retiring from this format after the T20 World Cup 2024. However, when do both of them announce it? They will decide it themselves.
Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli returned to Team India after a long time for the home T20 series against Afghanistan in January this year. Earlier, both of them last played a T20 International match against England in the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup 2022, in which India had to face defeat.
