Sunil Joshi Wants India’s Test Batters To Play More Domestic Matches
The last time Kohli played a Ranji Trophy game was in 2012, while Rohit has not played a domestic red-ball cricket match for nine years now. The recent domestic first-class game for the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Shubman Gill, and Rishabh Pant came in the season-opening Duleep Trophy. Moreover, head coach Gautam Gambhir said after the series loss in Sydney that players should make themselves available to play domestic cricket "if they have the commitment to play red-ball cricket".
“Our top-order batters don't play domestic cricket, and why don't they play there? If I am injured, no. If I've been playing all three formats of the game, then yes. If not, please go and play domestic cricket for four days, as when you score runs on those surfaces, it becomes much more easier," said Joshi in an exclusive conversation with IANS.
