Former Indian cricketer Ambati Rayadu has opened up on star India batter Virat Kohli returning to play Ranji Trophy after 13 years, saying that the veteran does not need the tournament, but rather needs time to "feel good about everything again".

On Virat Kohli's Return, Fan Says 'Ranji Trophy Is Blessed'. Ravichandran Ashwin Fumes

India's superstar batter Virat Kohli's Ranji Trophy return didn't go as planned, with the batter only scoring 6 runs off 15 balls in the first innings of Delhi vs Railways match.
