AHMEDABAD, March 21: To inflict maximum damage to the rival teams during the T20 World Cup, aggressive India skipper Virat Kohli is planning to open with flamboyant Rohit Sharma in the ICC tournament, scheduled to be held in country later this year.
Kohli expressed his desire after he opened with Rohit in the final T20 against England on Saturday. They added 94-run for the first wicket in quick time as India posted a massive 224 for 2 and won the match by 36 runs.
“I am going to open in IPL as well. I have batted in different positions in the past. But I feel we have a solid middle order now. So, I will definitely like to partner Rohit at the top going into the T20 World Cup,” the Challengers Bangalore captain said at the post-match presentation.
The Indian skipper said the T20 World Cup squad is more or less sorted out. (PTI)
