The emphasis seems to have shifted away from ODIs, possibly granting Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma an extended break if they’re excluded from the India squad for the South Africa tour. In this scenario, their return might be solely for the Test series. Both players have been absent from the T20I squad since the last T20 World Cup, with the focus swaying towards ODIs. This trend is expected to persist, given the limited six T20Is remaining before the T20 World Cup in June 2024.
