Virat Kohli remained everyone's target after Team India's poor performance in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. His bat remained silent in this series. Amidst the series, many speculations were made regarding Virat's Test career. There is also speculation that without Virat, Team India can tour England for the Test series in June 2025, but at present the decision on this has not been taken yet. This is because the next 2 months can be very important for Virat Kohli. It is believed that Kohli's future in Team India will depend on the Champions Trophy. Only after this BCCI will take any major decision.

Along with Virat, decision will also be taken on Rohit

According to PTI report, BCCI held a meeting on Saturday to review the performance of Team India on the Australia tour. During this time, the future of Rohit and Kohli was also discussed but no major decision has been taken regarding both the legends. At present, BCCI wants to see the performance of both in the Champions Trophy, only after that a decision will be taken on the careers of Virat and Rohit. If the performance of both of them is not good in the Champions Trophy, BCCI can take strict action against Rohit and Virat.

Virat is in a better position than Rohit

Team India will play the Champions Trophy in Dubai in February and March. After this the Indian team will tour England. There will be a five-match series between the two teams in England. The expectations of Virat playing in this are more than Rohit Sharma. This is because Rohit Sharma was able to score only 31 runs in three matches on the Australia tour and his captaincy was also disappointing. Virat's bat also remained silent but he managed to score more runs than Rohit. Although he had played two more matches than Rohit. Kohli had scored 190 runs in 9 innings of five matches. He also scored a century with his bat but only the Champions Trophy will decide the direction of his England tour.

ODI series against England will be important before Champions Trophy

Although the Champions Trophy will be important for Rohit and Virat, but just before that, all eyes will be on both of them in the three-match series against England. Rohit and Virat are certain to play in this series. Because immediately after this, the Champions Trophy will also be played in ODI format, through this, Virat and Rohit will not only get a chance to prepare, but they will also take a step towards proving themselves amidst bad form.
