Kohli may be left out of the Indian team for the T20 World Cup 2024, which will be held in the West Indies and the United States this June. According to sources, the BCCI believes that the West Indies’ slow wickets would not suit Kohli, and Ajit Agarkar has been charged with convincing Kohli to make way for younger players in T20Is. Kohli will need to perform very well in the IPL 2024 to establish himself as a member of the team. According to a report in the “Telegraph,” the selectors are hesitant to nominate Kohli for the T20 World Cup 2024 because they fear the seasoned player would not offer the team with the resources it requires in the fastest period of time.

According to reports, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has left the decision on Virat Kohli’s future in Twenty20 Internationals to Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar. Kohli hasn’t played a T20I since the T20 World Cup 2022, and his selection for the forthcoming series against Afghanistan is doubtful. It is thought that Agarkar spoke with Kohli about the need for a shift in attitude in T20Is, which Kohli attempted to apply in the Afghanistan T20I series, albeit with limited success. BCCI Secretary Jay Shah stated that Rohit Sharma will captain the Indian squad in the T20 World Cup, but declined to comment on Kohli’s T20I future.

According to a report, the management feels Kohli’s performance may not be appropriate for West Indies’ slow pitches, and Ajit Agarkar would persuade him to make room for the younger players. The BCCI believes that players such as Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Rinku Singh, and Shivam Dube may add more value than Kohli in the T20I format. KL Rahul is the chosen wicketkeeper for the T20 World Cup 2024 squad, but the selectors remain concerned about his fitness. The selectors will keep an eye on young players’ performances in the IPL, and excellent performances may result in selection to the T20 World Cup 2024 roster. The Provisional Squads for the T20 World Cup 2024 entries must be submitted to the ICC by the first week of May.
