Virat Kohli, Rohit sharma will play massive role in ODI WC 2023: Gambhir

Former India opener Gautam Gambhir feels seniors like skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who are great players of spin, will play a massive role in the ODI World Cup, to be held in the country later this year. Gambhir said India need to identify fearless players and have a mixture of cricketers in the 50-over format.

Asked if World Cup preparations start with the three-match ODI series against Bangladesh starting here on Sunday, Rohit made it clear that there is still time before his team can start thinking specifically about the marquee event. "Every time you play a game, its preparing for something. The World Cup is still 8-9 months (10 months) from now. We can't think so far ahead. We need to keep an eye on what we need to do as team," Rohit told mediapersons ahead of the first ODI. He said if he starts planning too early, it won't help but also made it clear that the team think-tank knows in which direction it needs to travel. "It is very, very important for us not to start thinking about so many things. Like we need to play this guy or tha
