Kohli Set for Jan 6 Vijay Hazare Return as Rohit Likely Done After Fulfilling BCCI Mandate

Both had already satisfied the BCCI’s two‑match participation requirement.

Overview

  • Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma sat out Round 3 on December 29 after featuring in their first two games for Delhi and Mumbai.
  • DDCA president Rohan Jaitley told PTI that Kohli has made himself available for Delhi’s January 6 match against Railways in Alur.
  • Multiple reports citing Cricbuzz say Rohit is not expected to play further in this season’s Vijay Hazare Trophy.
  • Senior domestic match fees remain fixed at Rs 60,000 per game, meaning Kohli and Rohit earned the same as other veterans, with additional daily allowances and typical Rs 10,000 Player‑of‑the‑Match awards.
  • With the ODI squad for New Zealand yet to be announced, Abhishek Sharma’s eye‑catching nets and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s U19 call‑up underline the tournament’s selection stakes, while live streaming on Dec 29 was limited to select venues in Ahmedabad and Rajkot.
