By Saurabh Sharma January 23, 2019 • 21:01 PM View: 3925

Napier, Jan 23 (CRICKETNMORE): In a bid to lessen his workload ahead of the brief limited over series against Australia at home and the rest of the busy season ahead that also comprises the Indian Premier League and the ICC World Cup in May and June, the BCCI on Wednesday announced that skipper Virat Kohli will be rested from the final two ODIs and the subsequent T20I series against New Zealand.

Opener Rohit Sharma, who led India to the Asia Cup triumph a few months ago, will captain the men-in-blue in the absence of Kohli.
