Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli has emerged as an unlikely option for opening the innings along with Rohit Sharma amid his fine run of form in IPL 2024. Kohli, who scored another half-century for Royal Challengers Bengaluru during the match against Gujarat Titans on Sunday, is currently the highest run-scorer in the competition and many experts including former India skipper Sourav Ganguly backed him to open the innings in the T20 World Cup 2024.

Chennai Super Kings skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad gave a special mention to star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and labelled his performance with the ball as a "match-turning spell" following CSK's 78-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the ongoing Indian Premier League on Sunday. In front of a sellout crowd at Chepauk, CSK exercised control in all facets of the game and put SRH's back against the wall.

On the other hand, Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal were picked as the specialist openers with Virat Kohli being an option. That ultimately led to Gill, who enjoyed a good run of form with Gujarat Titans in IPL 2024, missing out on a surprising pick for the IPL-winning coach.
