Virat Kohli will not be in action on January 6 in Delhi’s Vijay Hazare Trophy clash against Railways in Alur. Kohli had featured in two games earlier in the tournament as per BCCI’s diktat. The 37-year-old had signed up for an additional game ahead of the IND vs NZ ODI series, but decided to opt out at the last minute.
Kohli’s withdrawal was confirmed ahead of the game by Delhi head coach Sarandeep Singh.
“No, he is not available,” Singh confirmed to Hindustan Times.
