You Can’t Discard Rohit And Kohli Till 2027 World Cup, Says Pakistan’s Shahid Afridi
Telecom Asia Sport: Former Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi came out in support of ace batters Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma and dismissed attempts to sideline the two legends from the Indian ODI side, claiming they are the backbone of the team and must be continued until the 2027 World Cup, a news report said on Monday.
“It’s a fact that Virat and Rohit are the backbone of the Indian batting line-up, and the way they have played in the recent ODI series, it can confidently be said that they can play until the 2027 World Cup,” was quoted as saying in a report by Telecom Asia Sport.
Afridi said the two greats should be played in major series. “You need to preserve both these stars, and when India is playing against a weaker team, they can try some new players and rest Virat and Rohit,” the former opener told www.telecomasia.net on Monday.
