Checkmate - A King TRAPPED | The Virat-Rohit Saga - Part 3 | The Change of Guard - Cricket

T20 world cup 2021
With India Standing on the Cusp on a knockout much right in the group stages.
we start the final leg of this Virat Kohli - Rohit Sharma Journey From another such world cup
World cup 2019
India had just lost the semi finals
The team was divided
and The rift between the two stalwarts was out in the open.
What followed was the absurd, funny and sometimes downright excruciating public spectacle of the media going ham on the Issue
from each mole was made into a mountain
no tweet was left untouched
no like left unanalyzed
and while the media was caught up in it's own frenzy
The actual news went unseen.
The BCCI with a change in it's management had started flexing it's muscle.
what followed next
across 2 IPL's One world est championship Final and many home and away series
was a battle of political acumen and Wills alike
Something that has partially concluded with Rohit sharma becoming the T20 captain and Rahul Dravid becoming the Head coach

Honestly, the Indian cricket team has two legends of cricket playing together at the SAME TIME. No other team ever has had this privilege. But we being the country that we are, want only one to be at the top. My question is why can't both be put at the top? Yes, Rohit has won 5 IPL trophies but Virat has established India's test dominance throughout the world. If splitting the captaincy brings peace, then that's great. But in all of this, I can only see Virat being pushed out of the set up, not because of Rohit Sharma but because of other reasons stated in this video. Yes, ICC trophies are important but we all saw what happened in this year's T20 tournament. And if these trophies only mattered, then why play bilateral series???? In the World Test Championship, whoever has seen it knows, it rained for more than half of the test match with India batting first. That meant bowling with a wet ball, batting against a proper new ball and LESS TIME. But that wasn't the cause for the lose. How can you expect players to deal with the endurance of test cricket after playing only T20 games. New Zealand played England in England before that match. But India played IPL, were not given any test games, Virat had even said in a press conference that he requested for a few test matches before the final, but they were denied that opportunity. India were also suppose to play the New Zealand T20 matches before the T20 world cup, but that got cancelled too. I am not trying to give an excuse for him, I am just stating the facts. I have to end by saying this. Any other country, and many of them have said this, would be more than grateful to have even one of them and WE HAVE BOTH. Let's love them equally because India is good now in this condition, if these two manage to make things work out and if we can support them equally, then there's no saying what Indian cricket is capable of.

So, for the goods of Indian cricket, the BEST MAN should get the opportunity to lead his country.

[@srikanthsv79]

Thing is Rohit can still make decisions on the field so I don't think it's worth changing so much, it's fine in 1 format as Kohli himself is quitting but Odi wc is just 2 years away

[@zerkass4316]

Don't judge someone by his ipl trophies when Ambani is from your side 😂

[@HarpreetSingh-oz8hf]

The only thing which matters to us is a victory for team India, whether it comes through Virat’s bat or Rohit’s. I understand that Virat and Rohit both have different styles of captaincy. But, both are good in their own ways. After all that has happened, I still feel that Virat should have stayed as the test captain. His test record is absolutely amazing. I also wish that he goes and breaks Sachin Tendulkar’s record of a 100 hundreds. If there’s anyone in the world who can do it, it’s Virat.

[@kinshuksinghania4289]

Word on the street is Virat will have to let go his ODI captaincy as well!!!

[@Cricketismyreligion]

Very nicely summed up! *"How does it matter?"* but we know our media wants controversies. Really hope both Virat and Rohit win a World Cup before their retirement. They definitely deserve one.

[@manoharyaswanth4681]

don't believe too much he is saying only controversial part of the story and is making up things.. me generally being a social media holder know that Ashwin himself said those allegations are fake based on his selection.. this guy is soo dramatic.. and he said Rohit played and scored 50 in final.. but he isn't fit .. he played with an injury.. he missed 4 matches prior to the last 3 ipl matches and he didn't recover from injury.. this guy hid a lot of things to make it dramatic.. and I feel this guy is targeting Virat on Rohit selection in tests.. Virat backed Rohit in sa tour 2018 when the whole india trolled Virat for selecting Rohit over Rahane..

[@Venugopal-ez2vs]

I think that, virat moved the T20 to younger generation, on a positive note, as we can easily see, how MI trained young players as world class, under Rohit captaincy. Virat also did it well, but the rapo between Rohit and young guys> virat and young guys. So, it's a move I guess for T20 though india have lesser matches in this format.

[@arjungurudwan6558]

Saved his captaincy in ODIs don't think so

[@thisguyisfuckinggay9312]

Rohit currently has the best ability to groom a youngster as a captain. But his match winning skills are in a bit of doubt.

At this point Its absolutely necessary that virat should give up captaincy in all forms and focus entirely on his batting something that Tendulkar did. He is starting to get out of his prime, if he needs to extend it he has to play as a pure batsman.

[@Him18.]

He is the best captain in test and in all the formats he has the most highest win percentage by any indian captain across all 3 formats.... He is really very successful in his captaincy trophies are not everything, captains like graeme smith , sourav ganguly they never won any trophies but they were great captains by their records, similarly just look at virat's record

With all said, written and done.... there is something "not so good blood" between King and Hitman. How many times have we seen Virat and Rohit talking or consulting with each other when the team needs some strategy on the go on the field?. Rare... very rare!!... this is despite Rohit being the vice captain. Either the tussle is real or media made or both. But, it appears to be there. Even if Rohit is someone who does not express his mind as much as virat, for the thir party and outsiders like us, it looks like something is going on. It is all about perception management in any leadership role

[@vaibhavdave8704]

After seeing this video, my answer is there was surely a rift between virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, they have opposite captaincy style. But at the end what truely matters is if they are able to give us any trophy at ICC event. As a true India fan, I just hope India wins, T20 WC 2021,2022, Test championship final of 2023, and ODI worldcup of 2023. 😉

[@sorulodu]

Have you guys never fought with your teammates? You have right? Things like this are supposed to happen. At the end of the day you are so passionate to make your team win and things like this can happen. But i can assure you that players have a lot of empathy for each other as they know how hard it is to be in each other’s shoes.

[@ajay_sonic]

A pattern to ponder over - Cool composed demeanour of captains/coach has brought BIG trophies for India in the past. 1983 world cup - Kapil Dev. 2007 T20 world cup - Dhoni 2011 world cup - Dhoni (Coach - Gary Kirsten) Though, I would like Virat lifting one such BIG trophy for the immense talent that he is but *aggressive* captain is yet to win one! (Similarly, Saurav Ganguly was a great captain too who missed out on lifting the world cup in SA). Looks like, in future - (Rohit Sharma- captain/Rahul Dravid - coach) combination should do the trick.

You missed a big point which showed their conflict very clearly.

Test captain will be virat as he won series in Australia, england. The record speaks then. Virat will not have a threat, if he wins odi series nicely, or else, 2023 is farewell to ODI captaincy, like it is for T20 now.
