Tired Virat Kohli may skip Bangladesh tour

[HippoSucks]

I don't see much wrong with this. IPL > 1 match Test series against Bangladesh Anyway, I doubt IPL had any impact on his tiredness. He has faced 359 balls this IPL. That isn't going to affect his fitness much. The only issue is that this will be his first series as a Test captain. But we already saw some of his aggressive captaincy, so it isn't going to be detrimental if we try out Rahane or Pujara as the captain for one match. As for winning the match, the pitch will most likely be very flat. I don't think the Bangladesh bowlers will be able to bowl out even out A team (I also don't think out bowlers will be able to bowl out their main team's batsman, but that's a different matter). If we lose the match (by some chance), having Kohli wasn't going to change that.

Virat Grab bhabhi by purposes so BCCI might take some action , just like other than his match fees, he told gavaskar about skipping TOUR OF BD. Our and w.i players more enjoyed IPL . Virat in good nick and if he decides to drops out, we will miss him. My team vs Bangladesh S.Iyer-vijay-Rahul-Rahane-pujara-saha-jadeja-ashwin-yadav-shami-suresh Raina- I think India need a bowler captain so I do not select Mumbai captain rohit. Ashwin should lead.

Stupid OP..Give Virat a break........He has been playing non stop in every game since the SL ODIs..Probably Rahane is the only other player who has played each and every single game: 5 ODIS vs SL' date=' 4 tests against Aussies, tri series, world cup followed by IPL...I am sure if it was any other team, Kohli would not have opted out..these players risk a burnout and deserve a break..[/quote'] +1 Kohli has been playing non-stop he does risk burnout. Mental burnout, and alot of cricket is a mental game as much as it is skill and physical based. There is little risk of losing to BD so him sitting out is not a big deal. BD may draw though but that won't be as big a deal. Losing would be unacceptable but can't see it happening. Also lol @ people suggesting skipping IPL. Star players are the main attraction of IPL..he won't be able to and who in the world would pass up an opportunity to make around $2million in 40 days when there is no major series around? Someone not so smart for sure :phehehe: /thread
