BCCI is in action after Team India’s 1-3 defeat in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia. BCCI has issued some 10 point rules for the players on Thursday. In this, players have been asked to play in the domestic circuit. BCCI has clearly said that if anyone ignores the rules then he may have to pay the price for it. In such a situation, there is a possibility that senior players of Team India, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will be seen playing in Ranji.
The second phase of Ranji Trophy 2024-2025 is starting from 23 January. Players like Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant have started their preparations for the second phase of Ranji. Apart from this, Rishabh Pant and Virat Kohli are among the possible players of Delhi for the remaining matches of Ranji Trophy.

However, Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) says that they have not received any update yet.
A source related to the matter said, “Virat Kohli has sprained his neck and has also taken an injection for it. There is a possibility that he will miss the first of the remaining two Ranji Trophy matches and if the DDCA selectors If an update is given, the picture may become clear.”

The Delhi team will leave on January 20 and there will be two training sessions before the start of the match.
A senior DDCA official said Kohli’s name is likely to be included in the squad, with “subject to availability” written next to it.

Regarding Rishabh Pant, there is a claim that Rishabh Pant has already confirmed his availability for the match against Saurashtra and some DDCA officials are optimistic about his playing in the last match against Railways on home ground.
