There are about 2 years left for the World Cup 2027, but still this tournament is already at the center of discussion.

The reason for this is the two former captains of Team India – Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. There is constant speculation and rumors about the two best batsmen and popular players of India and world cricket playing in this World Cup. Especially during the Australia tour, the selection of both is being seen as their trial. In such a situation, if the bat of both of them does not work, will their career end? BCCI Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar has answered this and has told that he has also given his opinion regarding the future of both of them in the World Cup.

During an event on a news channel, Agarkar was asked about Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma playing in the World Cup 2027.

Agarkar first tried to avoid it and said that his focus is not on one or two players but on the performance of the entire team. But when Agarkar was asked whether the performance of both of them in every upcoming ODI series will decide their fate for the World Cup, Agarkar clearly denied it and said that both the batsmen do not need to prove anything.

Chief selector Agarkar clearly said that Rohit and Virat have achieved a lot as batsmen in cricket but no decision can be taken on the basis of their performance in a series.

Agarkar said, "It would be a bit foolish. One's average is above 50 and one is close to 50. You cannot keep them on trial in every match. The 2027 World Cup is still far away. Both are playing cricket after a long time, so you will judge them. They have achieved almost everything. It is not that if they do not score runs in this series, then they will not be selected or if they score 3 centuries, then they will be selected for the 2027 World Cup. Will play.”

From this statement of Agarkar, it seems certain that the failure of one or two matches is not going to be the end of the career of Rohit and Virat.

But there is no need for any statement to understand the truth which is different from the statement. It is clear that both the players are at their last legs. In such a situation, when players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tilak Verma, Riyan Parag are emerging in the team, then every match will be like a test for both the legends, no matter what Agarkar says in front of the media.
