Team India skipper Virat Kohli on Wednesday said that for the game cricket to sustain globally, Test cricket needs to be the premier format.
“I believe Test cricket is paramount for the game to sustain globally. I would urge youngsters to take up longer version of the game,” Kohli said during the first ever Annual Conclave of Delhi & Districts Cricket Association. It was an evening to remember where the legends of Delhi Cricket came together for the inauguration of stands named after Bishan Singh Bedi and Mohinder Amarnath.
“I remember when I played U14 and U16s for Delhi, Bedi sir would make us train too much. Now that’s become a part of my life,” Kohli fondly recollected in presence of Delhi legends and Sharmila Tagore, wife of former India captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi.
“It’s a huge honour to stand with all Delhi captains. I myself have been a Delhi captain,” said Kohli.
