Virat Kohli likely to lose ODI captaincy as well; Team India to have one skipper for T20I and ODI: Reports

Kohli has already resigned from India’s T20 captaincy. According to the latest reports, most of the senior members of the board are of the view that ‘split captaincy won’t work for T20I & ODIs. As a result, Kohli is likely to lose his ODI captaincy if the Indian team fails to qualify for the semifinals in the ongoing T20 World Cup in the UAE. Notably, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is not happy with the way the Indian team has performed in their first two matches of the showpiece event.

The threat was in response to Kohli’s message that slammed the religious discrimination which was apparently directed at Shami (the only Muslim player in the Indian side) after facing a 10-wicket defeat against arch-rivals Pakistan. Waking up to the online threats to Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s daughter, Delhi Commission for Women has stepped in issuing a notice and urging the Delhi Police to share the details regarding the police investigation, describing the matter of serious concern which needs immediate attention.

Indian Premier League is often credited for finding young talents in India and making them face one of the best players in the world.

IPL biggest domestic tournament in world, even World Cups look insipid in front of it: Sunil Gavaskar

Meanwhile, such is the quality of the tournament that it also provides many uncapped Indian players to share the dressing room with the legends of the game and learn from their experiences to improve and become a better version even before stepping into the international arena. Saying so, it must be pointed out that the much famous IPL also faces backlash for the fact that it is preferred over international cricket at times. KL Rahul likely to lead India in home T20Is against New Zealand, fans to return. Even as the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2021 is underway, there is big news coming in with regards to India's upcoming home series against New Zealand immediately after the ICC event.

KL Rahul likely to lead India in home T20Is against New Zealand, fans to return

It is being learned that KL Rahul is likely to lead the Men in Blue in the T20Is that follow the ongoing World Cup in UAE. This is because some of the senior members of the side are likely to be rested for these matches due to the fatigue of living inside a bio-secure bubble for extended periods. Rahul, who is likely to be a key player in the team's next T20 World Cup cycle, has thus been trusted with the job of a leader. "The seniors would need a breather and it is no secret that Rahul is an integral part of the team's T20 structure.

They have played 4 matches and registered convincing wins in each one of them to be certain of a place in the semifinals. They began the tournament as the favourites and have lived up to the tag and reputation by tasting big wins in one match after the other. Yet at the post-match presentation after the match between Sri Lanka and England at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, it wasn't really the England captain Eoin Morgan who was stealing the show but rather a cat. The animal innocently made a surprise entry into the stadium and walked near the area where cricketer turned broadcaster Simon Doull was interviewing the winning skipper Morgan. It did not disturb the proceedings but sure made for a great sight in a video that is now doing the rounds on the internet. Eoin Morgan becomes the most successful captain in T20I history and much more. England defeated Sri Lanka by 26 runs with the help of Jos Buttler's scintillating knock of 101* from 67 balls.

However, Jos Buttler and Eoin Morgan's 112 run partnership totally changed the momentum in favour of England and helped them post a very good total on board.

And what if that century comes on one of the sluggish pitches of UAE that too while batting first. Surely, it is not the easiest of things. This could be validated by the fact that the ongoing T20 World Cup saw its first 28 matches with none of the batters reaching the three-figure mark.

India's campaign got off to a poor start as they lost to arch-rivals Pakistan by 10 wickets. In the second Super 12 clash, India lost to New Zealand by 8 wickets. As a result, India's semi-final hopes are almost over due to their net run rate of -1.609. Even though there's still an outside chance for India to make it to semis but that would require a number of other results to go in their favour. As the Indian team come to terms with the likelihood of their early elimination from the T20 World Cup 2021, the wife of Indian skipper Virat Kohli, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma has shared a motivational message for the members of the Indian team.

Amidst all the criticism, Pakistan's top-order batter Azhar Ali has said that the early exit of India won't be good for the tournament. He added that everybody wants India to stay in the mega event.
