Senior Indian cricketers Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have been advised to feature in domestic competitions in countries like Australia and England, as debates over their international cricketing future continue. The suggestion comes amid discussions on whether senior players should scale down their participation in One Day Internationals (ODIs) to make way for the next generation.
According to reports, some cricketing experts believe that both Kohli and Sharma still have much to contribute in the 50-over format. A former cricketer was quoted saying that “nobody has the right to tell them to stop playing ODIs” and stressed that the decision should rest solely with the players and selectors.
The debate gained momentum as the Indian team management explores transition strategies ahead of future ICC tournaments. While some argue that experienced players should shift focus to Tests and T20Is, others insist that their presence in ODIs brings balance and confidence to the side.
Suggestions for them to play domestic cricket overseas are seen as a way to maintain form, adapt to varied conditions, and continue contributing at the highest level. Supporters of the move highlight that Australian and English leagues provide valuable exposure, which could help prolong their international careers.
Both Kohli and Sharma remain among India’s most celebrated players, with significant records across formats. As the debate unfolds, their role in shaping India’s ODI future continues to draw attention from fans and analysts alike.
