“India is a great team. If India lose one game, then people go on to say that the team is very bad. They won the ODI series, a 1-1 in T20Is and in the Tests. What more do you need,” said Sourav Ganguly.
“Rohit should be the captain. Of course, Virat Kohli is an outstanding player,” replied Ganguly when asked should Virat be also in the team after not having played for 14 months in T20Is.
India Cricket Team’s next assignment is a 3-match T20I series against Afghanistan. Though the squad is yet to be announced, it is expected that both Rohit and Virat will be back in the squad for the shortest format of the game.
After the series against the Pathans, India will go head to head with England for a 5-match Test series at home.
