Kapil Dev Makes Sensational Comments on Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma
Cricket legend Kapil Dev has made striking comments about senior players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, stating that consistent improvement is essential to remain in the team. He emphasized that past records alone cannot guarantee a prolonged spot in the playing XI. Referring to the recent struggles of Kohli and Rohit, Kapil noted that while they have achieved numerous milestones in the past, continued failures make it unjustifiable to grant them opportunities in the team.
Kapil Dev advised the senior players to maintain form and deliver quality performances to retain their positions. In the current competitive environment, Kapil advocated for selecting only players in form for the final XI. He criticized the practice of relying on past glory to include senior players, arguing that such exceptions are unfair when younger players are excluded for underperformance after a single tournament.
Commenting on the inclusion of Kohli and Rohit in the squad announced for the Champions Trophy, Kapil expressed his view that giving opportunities to younger players in place of an out-of-form Kohli would be more beneficial. He urged Kohli to play up to his potential, stating that it would benefit both the player and the team
