Poison in the team after captaincy is taken away - is there any point in retaining Virat in the ODI/T20 playing XI ?

[rangeelaraja]

Does anyone think Rat's ego will allow him to be a "regular" member of the playing XI if he is sacked from ODI captaincy ?

 

He is no Sachin or Dhoni ....I would feel very uncomfortable as the new captain to have a "character" like Kohli in the XI after he has been sacked from captaincy.

Its very simple, All he need to do is put the picture of Goddy in every room of his house and ine every car of his house and try to follow his path. Kohli can salvage his reputation of best bat in team India and gain respect of team mates by learning from the life and events of Goddy. se

his reflexes are gone. he is like Goddy post-2011, not like goddy post-whenever-goddy-gave-up-captaincy

He should retire and commit full time to Ted talks on how not to celebrate Diwali, the subtle art of MC, BC, etc.

He should retire for good. I don't see a point of retaining him in any format. Just get rid of him and build a team that can actually win something.

Yes, enough of this washed up fool. He has done enough damage to Indian cricket to be disqualified for any further goodwill/sympathy quota berth, which he has been milking for well over a year now. Pujara literally put his body in harm's way to drag the team over the line. Rahane has achieved GOAT level wins as captain. These two guys deserve some lenience, not the freeloader who shamelessly hijacked credit for our best test series win through his crony Shastri. 

[Khota]

If he performs then yes.

Virat Kohli should retire from T20s before his career average go below 50.

[Vijy]

he should be kicked out from all formats, but sadly that won't happen till after 2023 WC or even later

That's generally true, the rejig was more like Kohli's reactionary typical BS but if MS wasn't fully in on it he probably should've pushed harder on the alternatives!

Despite all that look what happened, India beat Afghans and our neighbors think it was fixed. 

 

Dear Virat, look at the state, now people are accusing afghans of throwing game against India.. What next ? we beat Namibia and the game was fixed ?

what more can you expect from a Rat? there's a reason why they tend to lurk in the lowest regions of the city (e.g., sewers)

I was one of those few who defended Virat post pak loss for being friendly. However i am so disappointed by the garbage that has come out of pak in last few days that I now see point of view of those who were critical of him.
