Reports of Virat Kohli's 'T20 World Cup' Snub Stuart Broad Reacts: “This Can’t Be True”
In the middle of the reports emerging of star India batter Virat Kohli's possible ouster from India's T20 World Cup squad, former pacer of England cricket team Stuart Broad has shared his views on the same. Kohli has been out of action since the conclusion of the T20I series against Afghanistan and also missed the five-match Test bilateral against England, citing personal reasons. Ahead of his return to action in the Indian Premier League later this month, reports have emerged over the past couple of days that Kohli might not be in Team India's plans for the T20 World Cup 2024, scheduled to be played in the West Indies and the USA.
Reacting to a social media post, Broad hoped that reports were not true, claiming that Kohli would be the biggest draw in the USA during the marquee event.
Broad posted on X, “This can’t be true. Just from a fans point of view of growing the game, with the ICC putting games on in America, India vs. Pakistan in New York, Virat is the biggest draw of any player in the world, and I’m sure he will be selected.”
