Kohli is presently not a part of the India T20 squad as well against the WestIndies. He has been given rest by the selectors. This period of rest has also been scrutinized by some, suggesting that the player needs to play regularly and get back to form. However, Kohli is set to feature in the Asia Cup, starting next month.

That is going to be an important series for the Indian, who will need to score good runs. Another series’ failure will only make matters complicated. As for Dhumal, it is the all down to the selectors if they want to pick him for the T20 World Cup.

However, there are a few series before the World Cup. With the Asia Cup, and home series against South Africa and Australia scheduled in the coming months, it gives Kohli some time to get back to form.

Kohli giving up captaincy: As far as Kohli, who is no longer the skipper in any of the formats, giving up the captaincy, Dhumal said it was completely his call. The BCCI respected his call and moved ahead.

“As far as his captaincy is concerned, it was his call, He did not want to continue with it. We respected that decision. He has contributed so much in Indian cricket, and everyone respects him,” added Dhumal.
