Morne Morkel on Kohli and Rohit's 2027 World Cup Prospects
The former South African pacer Morne Morkel, who became India's bowling coach in August, shared his views on whether veterans Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will feature in the 2027 ODI World Cup. Morkel expressed confidence about their potential participation:
"They can for sure play for a long time. I don't think they have a set retirement timeline in their mind at all."
Experience and Fitness Will Decide
Morkel highlighted that their continued presence in the team will largely depend on fitness and form. Both players have been pillars of Indian cricket, and their experience remains invaluable. The coach emphasized the importance of patience and readiness to give opportunities, but it rests on their performances.
Balancing Youth and Experience
While acknowledging the emergence of younger talents, Morkel underlined that the right balance must be struck between seasoned players like Kohli and Rohit and newcomers to build a competitive and dynamic squad for future tournaments.
"It's about creating that perfect blend of youth and experience."
Morne Morkel remains optimistic about Kohli and Rohit Sharma’s roles extending into the 2027 World Cup, stating their fitness and form will be the key factors.
