During a recent chat with RevSportz, Ganguly had lamented the fact that the BCCI decided to rest big-name players such as Virat Kohli and Indian captain Rohit Sharma among others were for the West Indies T20I series.

“In my opinion, Both Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma still have a place in T20I Cricket and I cannot see why Kohli or Rohit cannot play T20I cricket for India,” Ganguly said.

Ever since the T20 World Cup last year, BCCI has been looking to monitor the workload of the aforementioned players which is why Hardik Pandya has been captaining India in the shortest format.
