Uncertainty Over Virat Kohli’s Participation In Remaining England Tests

As far as Kohli is concerned, he continues to ply his trade for RCB in IPL. However, he is no longer their captain. He remains a vital part of the Indian cricket team and emerged as the Player of the Tournament in ICC Men’s ODI World Cup 2023 in which India finished as the runners-up. Kohli, however, has pulled out of the first two Test matches of India’s ongoing Test series against England due to personal reasons and there is no clarity on whether he will be available for the final three Tests against the Three Lions. 

The Board of Control For Cricket in India (BCCI) has not yet announced India’s squad for the third, fourth and the fifth Test matches against England.
