Virat Kohli was seen perplexed with the question directed his way by the reporter after the India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup 2021 match
Although Virat Kohli’s captaincy was questionable enough during the India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup 2021 showdown, something which wasn’t was him selecting Rohit Sharma in the playing 11. The mainstay of the Indian unit’s batting gameplan, Rohit’s selection needed little justifying.
However, as India was hammered by 10 wickets by Pakistan, almost everything which the Indian team did on the day came under scrutiny. And one reporter decided to put question marks over Rohit’s place in the Indian team with him going onto ask the Indian captain if Ishan Kishan should have been picked over Rohit.
Virat Kohli Left Irked By Question Made By Reporter After India vs Pakistan
Much like the remainder of the country, Kohli too was left exasperated with the line of questioning with him ripping into the reporter. A clearly furious Kohli was seen asking the reporter who he would have gone for instead of Rohit with him talking about Rohit’s achievements in the world of T20s.
Kohli was asked by the reporter, “Do you think its a mistake to not play Ishan Kishan and he could have done better than Rohit Sharma?” To which Kohli replied, “That’s a very brave question, what do you think sir? I played the team that I thought was the best. What is your opinion?”
The reporter replied, “I am just asking. I am not going to comment.” Kohli then said, “Will you drop Rohit Sharma from T20 internationals? You will drop Rohit Sharma? Do you know what he did in the last game that we played? Yeah? Unbelievable. If you want controversy, please tell me before so I can answer accordingly.”
