Chetan Sharma Claims Virat Kohli Lied About Sourav Ganguly Asking Him to Reconsider T20I Captaincy Decision in Video of Sting Operation
Sharma made other shocking revelations about Indian cricket in the viral video of the sting operation by a media outlet. He had stated that the Indian cricketers use injections to get fit before playing.
BCCI Chairman of selectors Chetan Sharma, in the viral video as part of a sting operation, claimed that Virat Kohli lied to the media about the then BCCI president Sourav Ganguly asking him to reconsider his decision to relinquish T20I captaincy. Kohli had stated that the BCCI had accepted his decision to give up captaincy in the shortest format of the game and this was contradicted by Sharma, who said, "Sourav Ganguly said that think once, in a video conference. Virat might not have heard," adding, "Virat was lying. But why Virat lied, nobody knows till today." Kohli was unceremoniously removed as ODI skipper right before the South Africa tour, after which he decided to step down from Test captaincy.
