The future of Virat Kohli with the Indian team looks very uncertain from now on. Neither the BCCI nor the player himself has issued a statement about his future.
The former India skipper has already been withdrawn from tests and T20Is. He brought down curtains on his illustrious T20i career after India won the T20 World Cup last year before announcing his test retirement in May of this year.
Lack of communication between Kohli and Indian team management
Although he is still part of the ODI setup of India, things can take a sharp turn in the coming days.
Your daily dose of cricket!
The next ODI assignment from India is in Australia. The men in Blue will visit Australia for three odis and five T20Is next month. And for the tour, the ODI future of Virat Kohli remains a mystery.
The experienced Batsman last played for India during the Victorious Champions Trophy campaign earlier this year, while his last performance came into competitive cricket during the IPL.

The future of Virat Kohli remains uncertain
Although only time will tell how things unfold in the coming days, reports state that the India ODI setup could undergo a number of major changes in the coming days.
According to Revsportz, the Selectors Rohit Sharma could dismiss as the ODI captain and replace him with Shubman Gill. The Young Batsman is already the leader of the test side and can also be in charge of the ODI team.
In another major development, Virat Kohli will probably fall from the ODI team for the upcoming tour through Australia.
Main selector Ajit Agarkar recently spoke with Virat Kohli, but things are still not very clear about the future of the Batsman in the international cricket. The report stated that Kohli asked for two weeks to call.
“Team management had a word after the main selector had spoken with Virat and being able to move things quickly (the time frame given by Virat is two weeks away from here) Aus is now 50/50”, wrote Revsportz’s Rohit Juglan on X.

Virat Kohli and Rohit to fade after the Australian tour?
Speculations are again that Virat Kohli and Rohit’s career are over at the Indian team after both were not mentioned in India a team for the next 50-over series against Australia A.
Both players have not played a competitive cricket since the IPL and it was expected that they would be called a team in India, so that they get a much needed game exercise for the Australia Tour.
