As many as five Indian players are set to be rested for next month’s T20I tri-series in Sri Lanka, according to a report in the media.
Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and MS Dhoni are the players the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is mulling to rest.
“What is the point of sending these cricketers after such a hectic South African tour,” a BCCI source told media.
The report also said that Rohit Sharma is likely to be given the captaincy role in the absence of Kohli, who has so far played every game in the ongoing tour of South Africa.
