“Yes, they should’ve played…” Ex-cricketer Suresh Raina takes a dig at Kohli and Rohit’s absence from Duleep Trophy

The 2024 Duleep Trophy will be shown live on the Sports18 Network on Television in India and Jio Cinema app on the OTT.

New Delhi: The Duleep Trophy is just around the corner, marking the return of the red-ball cricket to the domestic circuit. Naturally, many senior cricketers are vying for a place to play for any one side to climb back to red-ball cricket.

Star India batters Rishabh Pant, Kishan and Shubman Gill are among the many players who will feature in the upcoming Duleep Trophy 2024. However, India’s premiere batters Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have given the tournament a skip. Seeing Kohli and Rohit’s absence, former cricketer Suresh Raina has remarked-

Yes, they should’ve played, you see we haven’t played red-ball cricket ever since the IPL ended. Since, we’re heading towards a crucial Test series, one must play 4 day cricket and get used to how the wicket will behave on Day 4.

With the Border Gavaskar Trophy coming up towards the end of the year, the Duleep Trophy would have given both stars a perfect opportunity to get some practice under their belt.
