The first match of the five-match T20 International series between India and England will be played at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad today. Earlier in the day, Team India captain Virat Kohli interacted with the media. At this time, Virat did not like a question and in response said that he must have some logic in the question. In fact, a journalist has questioned whether R Ashwin’s dislike of Virat’s return to limited overs cricket. Although Ashwin is part of the Test team, he is still out of the limited over format after the 2017 Champions Trophy. He recently performed in a Test series against Australia and England. Along with the ball and the bat, Ashwin is making a significant contribution to the Test team.
Asked if R Ashwin would return to form for limited overs, Virat asked him: “Washington Sunder is doing great for us and if Washington Sunder’s season is so bad it is very difficult to put two players in the lineup (which is not possible).
Moreover, Virat is also very happy that Bhuvneshwar Kumar is back in the team. He said, ‘It’s good to see him again on the team. He is desperate to contribute to India’s win. I hope he gets stronger from here.
Very “very happy to have Bhuvi back.”
