Virat Kohli, the Indian team's star batsman, is out of the current five-match Test series against England. In such a situation, his absence from the 17th IPL season is now called into question. Former Indian cricketer, Sunil Gavaskar has claimed that Virat Kohli may skip the IPL in 2024. According to Gavaskar, Virat Kohli may not play in the 17th season of the IPL.



Kohli was last seen playing on the ground in the T20I series against Afghanistan, after which he is staying away from cricket due to family reasons. This is the first time that Kohli has remained away from the ground for such a long time. Answering the questions being raised about Kohli playing in the IPL, Sunil Gavaskar said, "Kya woh khelenge? kuchh reason ke liye khel nahi rahe hain, shaayad ho sakta hai ke IPL ke liye bhi na khele (Will he play? He is not playing because of some reason, perhaps he may not play in the IPL as well."

Gavaskar also praised Kohli as well as Indian wicketkeeper batsman Dhruv Jurel. Looking at Jurel's performance in the fourth match of the recent India vs England Test series, he compared him with MS Dhoni and also believed that he could be the star player of IPL 2024.



Royal Challengers Bangalore's first match is with Ms. Dhoni's team, the Chennai Super Kings. This match will be played on March 22 at Chepauk Stadium in Chennai. In such a situation, there is very little possibility that a player like Virat Kohli would not want to miss such a big tournament under any circumstances.

IPL 2024: Virat Kohli has been away from the game of cricket since January 2024 due to personal reasons. The legendary cricketer had traveled to Hyderabad with the Indian team for the first test match against England, but then he decided to miss the first two tests. Later, he withdrew his name from the entire five-match test series against England due to the birth of his second child, and no official update has been provided regarding his return since then.



The fans are anxiously waiting to get an official update regarding the return of Virat Kohli, who plays for the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL. There's some good news for Virat Kohli fans, as the former RCB skipper will be participating in the opening game of RCB against the MS Dhoni-led Chennai Super Kings. According to a news report from India Today, Virat is likely to join the Royal Challengers Bangalore camp on March 17th. RCB will be hosting their unboxing event on March 19, 2024, and Kohli is expected to be a part of that event.



The 35-year-old will be making his much-awaited return to the cricketing field in Bangalore's opening IPL 2024 match against CSK on February 22 at Chennai?s Chepauk Stadium. The Bangalore-based team will then take on the Punjab Kings on March 25 at Bangalore?s Chinnaswamy Stadium. Their third game of the season will be against the Kolkata Knight Riders on March 29 in Bangalore, and after the match against KKR, RCB will play host to the Lucknow Super Giants on April 2.



The Faf Du Plessis-led team will travel to Jaipur to lock horns against the Rajasthan Royals in April. The full schedule of IPL 2024 has not been revealed, as the BCCI has released the schedule of just the first 21 games of the IPL as they are waiting to get information regarding the dates of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections before announcing the remaining schedule of IPL 2024.
