The Indian selection committee has its task cut out when it zeroes in on the replacement for Ambati Rayudu's in India's ODI squad for the three-match series against England after the veteran right-hander failed the YoYo Test.
He has broken many a record with his batting, but Virat Kohli, the medium-pacer, could have had a lot more than eight international wickets had his teammates believed in his bowling ability like he does.
India pacer Mohammed Shami, who is currently undergoing a rehabilitation program at the NCA in Bengaluru, also said that undisciplined bowling cost India the series in Bangladesh.
'If fame, money and comfort are the only factors that drive us, then we are playing cricket for entirely the wrong reasons.'
'Virat's career and captaincy are on auto-pilot mode right now.' 'He knows what he is doing and leads by example.'
