Virat Kohli, KL Rahul not available for next Ranji Trophy round

As for Rahul, he has an elbow issue which will keep him out of Karnataka’s match against Punjab in Bengaluru. On Thursday, the BCCI issued an unprecedented list of dos and don’ts for all players, which included mandatory participation in domestic cricket. In case the player is not available to play, he will need permission from the national chairman of selectors.
