Right from the time, Virat Kohli officially told the Delhi and District Cricket Association, the selectors were keen to make him the captain of the team that will take on the Railways at the Ferozeshah Kotla from January 30. Sources, however, told CricBlogger that Virat too has turned down the offer to captain the side like Rishabh Pant on the same ground that he isn’t well-versed with the players.
Regular captain Ayush Badoni will continue to lead the team that would have two Test players.
It is also revealed that Virat is playing this match not because there was a standard operating procedure from the BCCI to follow. He is largely playing this game because both BCCI and its selectors are keen that all the top stars are see playing domestic cricket. Sources also also said that none of the top Indian cricketers got any SOP from BCCI. If the cricketers have got such dos and don’ts from the media, it shows the Indian board in poor light.
