Virat Kohli has not been picked for the first India vs England ODI on Thursday. The ODI is one of the only three matches that India will be playing ahead of the Champions Trophy 2025, that starts on February 19, and Kohli missing the game comes as a major blow for the Rohit Sharma-led team. Rohit Sharma said at the toss: “Jaiswal and Harshit are making their debuts, unfortunately Virat isn’t playing, he had a knee problem last night.” The visuals painted a grim picture. Videos showed Kohli walking gingerly with a heavily strapped right knee. The extent of the injury is not known but Gautam Gambhir‘s Indian cricket team management is clearly not taking a chance.
