Virat Kohli takes fitness test in London, questions raised over BCCI’s approval

London, United Kingdom – Virat Kohli has reportedly undergone a fitness test in London, making him the only Indian cricketer to do so outside the country. The move has sparked scrutiny over why the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) permitted the process abroad.

According to reports, the approval has raised questions about transparency and uniformity in the team’s selection and monitoring procedures. While players are generally required to clear tests in India, Kohli’s case is being seen as an exception, drawing criticism over preferential treatment.

The development has fueled debate within cricketing circles, with some officials pointing out that such decisions risk setting the wrong precedent. The BCCI has not yet issued an official clarification on the matter
