Speaking about Kohli, Shinde said he was delighted to know that despite scoring several centuries, the cricketer remained humble. He also revealed that the discussions included projects related to “Third Mumbai”, Atal Setu, and other matters.
Considering that Kohli is an active player in only one format (One-Day Internationals), he will likely make his appearance for Team India in the upcoming ODI series against the West Indies.
Team India is set to lock horns with the West Indies in a three-match ODI series, with the first match scheduled to be played on September 27 at the Greenfield International Stadium in Kerala. The Assam Cricket Association Stadium in Guwahati will host the second ODI game on September 30, followed by the third match on October 3 at the Maharaja Yadvindra Singh PCA Stadium in New Chandigarh.
