Xtra Time Web Desk: Chetan Sharma talked about the on-going controversies against Kohli and Sharma after Rohit Sharma was named the new white-ball captain of Team India.

Controversies prevailed over the India Team after Kohli was removed from the white-ball captaincy, unceremoniously towards the end of 2021. However, Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had urged cricket fraternity to leave behind the controversies in 2021.

On being asked if the two senior cricketers had tried to sort things out between each other, Chetan Sharma said, ” But about what? Things are absolutely fine. That’s why I was saying don’t go by speculations. We’re all cricketers first and selectors later. There is nothing between them.”

The ex Indian cricketer said that Kohli and Sharma had good planning about the future of Indian cricket and that he enjoys watching them working as a team.

Sometimes I read reports about them and laugh. I’m telling you there is such good planning between them about the future. Things are fantastic. If you were in my place, you would have enjoyed watching how these guys are working together as a team and family and a unit,” Chetan Sharma added.

The veteran cricket further added, “It’s really saddening when people make up things like that. So please, leave controversies behind in 2021. Let’s talk about how to make them the best team.”
