BCCI finally break silence and confirms about captaincy change in white ball cricket

About Captaincy change in white ball cricket BCCI confirms that Virat Kohli will remain as the captain for all formats. There are reports doing the rounds that Kohli might lose his white-ball captaincy and Rohit Sharma could be asked to lead the limited-overs side

However, Dhumal rubbished such claims. “This is all rubbish. Nothing (as) such is happening. This is all what you guys (media) are talking about. BCCI has not met or discussed anything on this issue (split captaincy),” Dhumal told media. “Virat will remain as the captain (of all formats).”

Earlier, it was reported that Kohli has been very successful in Test cricket, but the onus of leading the side in limited-overs cricket could fall on Sharma because of the former’s failure to guide the side to victory in ICC events despite having some of the best bowlers and batters in the game.
