India vs West Indies: More 'rest' adds fuel to Virat Kohli debate
Virat Kohli has been rested for the entire white-ball tour of West Indies after he requested BCCI for a break. On July 7, TOI had exclusively reported that Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah were unlikely to play the five-match T20I series following the three-match ODI series in the Caribbean that starts on July 22. TOI has learnt Kohli has assured the board that he would be available for Asia Cup (late August) onwards. His struggles have put his place in the T20I playing XI under scrutiny with the T20 World Cup barely three months away. "The team management and selectors wanted to play a full-strength T20I team from the ongoing England tour. But Kohli insisted he wanted a break and didn't wish to travel to West Indies," a BCCI source told TOI on Thursday.
