Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli ended all doubts over their possible snub from the 2027 ICC World Cup, as they have made themselves a certain choice for the World Cup with their incredible performances in the comeback series against Australia.
The 38-year-old finished as the leading run-scorer and averaged 101 in the series with a 121* not-out in the last ODI. For his heroics, Rohit Sharma was awarded the Player of the Series.
"Don't bring up this whole age issue that he's touching 40. He's fit, batting well and catching brilliantly at slips. What else do you need? He's playing with such ease like he did in the 2019 World Cup. Only thing is he didn't get to the seventh or eighth gear and kept going at third and fourth gear," he continued.
"If not for RoKo, the other teams will finish us," Srikkanth dismisses efforts from other Indian players in India's success
"These two only have to win India the 2027 World Cup. If not for RoKo, the other teams will finish us. If I were the chairman of the selection committee, today itself I would go to them and say, 'Just be fit for the 2027 World Cup and win us the trophy,'" said Srikkanth (via the aforementioned source).
"It should be said that we'll form the team around you to win the trophy" - Kris Srikkanth
While the Indian selectors have kept the legend constantly under the grind, as a threat has been looming over their position in the World Cup squad, former selector Kris Srikkanth believes that a different approach should be adopted.
"So don't try to intimidate them and instead leave them alone. If anything, it should be in reverse; they should tell them how important both are and ask them to look after themselves for the 2027 World Cup. It should be said that we'll form the team around you to win the trophy. That'll be a better thought process," he concluded.
