Virat Kohli Set To Play In Ranji Trophy: Indian team’s star batsman Virat Kohli proved to be a bad flop in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia and it became difficult to score runs from his bat. He had scored a century in the first match, but after that his form waned and he yearned to stay at the crease, leave alone scoring runs. On most of the occasions in the series, he got out while stroking the ball off the off stump. After India lost the series 1-3 in Australia, the BCCI has made it mandatory for its contracted cricketers to play domestic cricket unless there are any fitness issues. Now Kohli is ready to play in Ranji Trophy.
