Kris Srikkanth has accused the BCCI of mishandling the retirements of two of India’s biggest legends, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Rohit was the first to step away from red-ball cricket in May, and within days, Kohli followed him and stunned the entire cricket world.
The former Indian chief selector believes that both Virat and Rohit should have been celebrated properly for their contributions to Test cricket.
Kris Srikkanth said on his YouTube channel, “If you play 100 tests for your country, you must be a terrific cricketer. So, you should be given a good send-off. I am convinced there was a big communication gap when Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma retired. They should have spoken to them, but instead, this is not a good look for the game and Indian cricket.”

Srikkanth further noted, “Virat Kohli's retirement happened just like that. Virat Kohli deserved a better send-off. He still had two years of Test cricket left in him. But because we drew in England, such talks about him got shut off. However, India will find it difficult to get a cricketer like Virat Kohli for some time.”

Srikkanth signed off by saying, “Similarly, with Pujara, though it's been a while since he played for India, they should have spoken to him also about his retirement plans. Of course, the player also has to cooperate and realize when their time is up. Had that happened, Pujara would have gotten a better send-off. But it's a matter of cooperation between the player, selectors, and the BCCI.”
