Mumbai: Will Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma be seen playing in the One Day World Cup next year? Both are currently playing in the IPL. However, BCCI is concerned about Rohit Sharma’s fitness. Rohit Sharma has been included in the team for the one-day series against Afghanistan starting from June 14. But it is still not sure how much hitman can play. Because the former India captain is playing as an impact player in the IPL as well. He can be seen in the field only when batting. As a result, the board is also worried at the moment.

According to the BCCI source, ‘Though Rohit Sharma has lost weight, it is still not certain how much he will be able to take the pressure of competitive cricket. He has to field 50 overs. In one day cricket IPLThere is no substitute for an impact player like Even in the World Cup, if he is in the XI, Rohit will have to field in those matches as well as batting.’

While there is a dark cloud of worry about Rohit, the board is as sure about Virat Kohli. Even at this age, King Kohli is in the top six in the Orange Cap race. He is also fielding brilliantly in the field. Reports suggest that the BCCI is no longer viewing Rohit and Virat Kohli at the same standard due to the huge difference in fitness. While Rohit has been plagued by repeated injury problems, Kohli has been proving time and time again why he is one of the fittest cricketers in the world, if not the fittest. Even away from India Kohli He continues to train regularly at Lord’s indoor facility, which has resulted in him still maintaining his fitness.

Rohit, however, has scored runs consistently. Scored four fifties and one century in last 10 ODIs. But despite the weight loss, how much pressure his body can withstand will ultimately determine his fate for the 2027 World Cup. If Rohit’s fitness becomes a problem then BCCI will have to think of alternatives. Ishan Kishan has been called up for the three matches against Afghanistan on June 14, 17 and 20, but Yasswi Jaiswal is still waiting. Then there is the series against England in mid-July. During that series too RohitFitness will be tested.
