“This is something unusual I have heard, I didn’t see Virat’s press conference as well. This communication gap should not have happened.

The latter also expressed he was shell shocked to hear Kohli’s sacking as ODI captain but refused to comment on a rather harsh decision by the selection committee.
“This is definitely shocking and this is news to me as well that Virat Kohli said something like this in the press conference. What comment should I give, about why it has happened and why such a thing should not have happened,” he added.
“I would not like to comment too much on this. I will only want to say that they are the authority and whatever decision they have taken, they would have taken it thoughtfully and my statement about this does not hold any significance, whether they have done right or wrong,” he stated further.
Virat Kohli vs BCCI: Notably, Virat Kohli had contradicted BCCI President Sourav Ganguly’s statements during his explosive press conference on Wednesday. The development has pointed fingers at BCCI, Selection Committee and Sourav Ganguly for handling the captaincy issue in a poor way.
Rajkumar further stated Virat Kohli’s eagerness to play for the country cannot be doubted after he announced his availability for the ODI series.
“Virat never wants to step aside from playing, he is always ready to play. This news was certainly surprising that he has asked for leave because of his daughter’s birthday. Her birthday is on the 11th and at that time he will be playing the Test match,” Rajkumar signed off.
