Rahul Dravid makes light of Virat Kohli's 'rest' bits of gossip

Previous India commander and current Under-19 cricket group mentor Rahul Dravid on Tuesday made light of hypotheses over Virat Kohli being denied rest amid the Test arrangement against Sri Lanka one month from now.

Kohli had as of late talked about players' burnout because of consistent cricket and there were gossipy tidbits that he might be refreshed for the entire of Sri Lankan arrangement so as to keep him new for the voyage through South Africa which begins on December 30.

The primary India versus Sri Lanka Test begins from November 16 in Kolkata while Nagpur and Delhi will have the second and third Tests individually before the sides play three One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and a similar number of Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).
Dravid felt the new lead won't have a major effect to adjust the energy of bat and ball unless wearing pitches were laid out.

"It is a decent choice however the change isn't extremely uncommon as just a couple of players utilize bats which don't go under new guidelines. It is the quality contribute and ground which matter cricket (more than the bat)," said Dravid, who has more than 24,000 keeps running in global cricket.

Dravid likewise offered the go-ahead to ICC's choice to reveal an alliance each for One-Day Internationals and Tests.

"The alliances will produce more intrigue and setting to the two-sided arrangement," he sai

"Turns are required. There are a considerable measure of matches being played, so you have to pivot the players. I think the administration is taking right choice (as far as turning the players)," Dravid said on the sidelines of FICCI's felicitation programs for ladies cricketers Mithali Raj and Jhulan Goswami.

"Everybody needs rest. He (Kohli) will get rest when he needs. At the point when and which arrangement (Kohli will take) rest will be chosen by the group administration, physios and physical coaches (in the wake of talking about with the player). Most likely right now he needn't bother with rest. He might be tried later. I don't know why there is such a large amount of dialog and contention," he included.

Dravid was gotten some information about International Cricket Council (ICC's) most recent choices on restricting the span of the bats.

As indicated by the ICC, however the limitation on the length and width of bats stay unaltered, the thickness of the edges can't be more than 40mm and the general profundity can be 67 mm and no more.
