Ex-India spinner reckons Kohli should open for 2027, leaving Gill in the dust!
Ravichandran Ashwin is dropping some serious heat with his World Cup squad picks! The former spinner thinks it’s high time we see Virat Kohli opening alongside Rohit Sharma for the 2027 ODI World Cup, and honestly, who can argue with that? Shubman Gill, the current captain, is being left out like a dodgy pie chucker in a Test match. Talk about a statement!
With both Rohit and Kohli hanging up their longest-format boots, it’s clear they’re still gunning for glory in ODIs. The selectors might be eyeing a fresh start, but Ashwin’s call has got fans buzzing. Can you imagine the fireworks with Kohli and Rohit at the top? It’s like putting the two biggest hitters in the same team – pure carnage!
As India transitions into a new era, the pressure’s on to deliver. If Kohli and Rohit can still tonk it like they used to, then maybe leaving Gill out isn’t such a village move after all. Buckle up, because the lead-up to the 2027 World Cup just got a whole lot spicier!
