There are rumours that Kohli may be included in the squad chosen for the T20 World Cup in such a scenario.
Ajit Agarkar, the team's chief selector, announced Virat Kohli on Tuesday. Agarkar has heaped praise on Kohli's fitness. Giving the example of Kohli in a podcast, Agarkar said that if anyone wants to learn how to maintain fitness then learn from Virat. Virat Kohli has stayed away from the game in his career only due to personal reasons. He never had any major fitness problems.
Agarkar said, "For example, Kohli is one of those who has set a benchmark and in 15 years of his career, he has been fit. If someone like him sets an example and something like this comes to the fore, If you maintain certain fitness levels that you need or certain fitness levels that you need, then gradually it affects the entire ecosystem.'
The selectors have not said anything about whether Kohli will play the World Cup or not. Kohli is currently the Orange Cap holder in IPL 2024 and is the only batsman who has scored more than 300 runs in five matches.
