- Virender Sehwag Said- It is Not Possible for Dhoni to Replace KL Rahul or Young Rishabh Pant, Who are in form.
Former India opener Virender Sehwag said on Tuesday that despite the good performance in the IPL, it is difficult for former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni to return to the team. He said this at an event in Ahmedabad. He further said that the first thing should be understood is that once the selectors leave a player and move forward, it is usually very difficult for him to return. Secondly, if he (Dhoni) also performs well in the IPL, then who will take his place in Team India. Right now KL Rahul is doing well in batting as well as wicketkeeping. In such a situation, it is impossible for Dhoni take his place.

Dhoni has not played any international matches since the semi-final against New Zealand in the World Cup last year. The board also excluded him from the Central Contract List earlier this year. Since then, speculation about his retirement was intensified. However, Dhoni has not said anything about his retirement. He will return to the cricket ground through the IPL. He participated in a training session last week before the Chennai team’s training camp closed due to coronavirus.
Virat Kohli will Return to IPL
Regarding the poor form of Indian captain Virat, Sehwag said that such a round comes in every player’s career. Virat does not have any flaws in his playing technique. Virat did not do very well in the four-match Test series on the tour of England and now on the tour of New Zealand, but it also has luck and other things. They will get their form through IPL or cricket series in India.
He said that India’s performance on the tour of New Zealand was not good, but the team will get strength after the return of Hardik Pandya. He said that Hardik’s inclusion in the team in the T20 World Cup will give more strength to the team as even a player in the short form of cricket reverses the match. Because of this, no single team can be seen as a contender in its matches.
