After testing positive for COVID-19, Rohit Sharma’s participation in the fifth Test against England that was postponed and will now take place at Edgbaston is now in question.
Whether or whether the India skipper will recuperate in time to be ready for the crucial Test is yet uncertain. If Rohit’s recovery is delayed, a number of people have been suggested to take his place.
However, there is only one name that matters to former Australian spinner Brad Hogg, and that is Virat Kohli. Hogg asserted that Kohli began this series as captain and should be able to complete it in that capacity.
“There is only one Test left in this series, which has taken more than a year to complete, yet India is struggling to come into this Test match. England recently destroyed New Zealand, and now India is suffering as a result. The vice captain Rahul is hurt. Rohit is ill with Covid and lying in bed. Is he going to stand up for this Test match? If not him, who will serve as captain? stated a former cricketer for Australia.
There has been a discussion of Bumrah. But Kohli has to win for me. He was the captain when this series began, and he ought to be the captain when it is over. Don’t transfer it to another person. Currently, India is up 2-1.
Givei Virat Kohli the opportunity to lead his side to victory in this last Test match in order to defend this championship and the series, the former left-arm wrist spinner continued.
India grabbed a 1-0 series lead by winning at Lord’s after the first Test at Trent Bridge resulted in a tie. The third Test, played at Headingley, Leeds, was won by the hosts, who evened the series.
India, on the other hand, rallied to win the Oval Test and lead the series 2-1.
India withdrew owing to a Covid concern, and the fifth match was postponed just a few hours before it was scheduled to start at Manchester’s Old Trafford.
