BCCI removed Virat from the captaincy of the ODI team and handed over the command to Rohit Sharma
Virat Kohli had announced to leave the captaincy of the T20 team before the T20 World Cup held last year. After this, the BCCI also removed him from the captaincy of ODI matches. The logic behind this was that the board wants to have only one captain in limited overs cricket. Now because Virat is not the captain of T20, so he is also being removed from the captaincy of ODI. The BCCI has handed over the captaincy of both these limited overs formats to Rohit Sharma.
