Virat Kohli will not feature in the Vijay Hazare Trophy fixture against Railways on Tuesday (January 6). NewsX has reliably learnt that the star Indian batter will not be a part of the Delhi team for the above mentioned match but might play the game against Haryana on January 8.
Kohli has been in an incredible form in the List A format. After a couple of disappointing outings in Australia, he made a roaring comeback to form and hit 6 50+ scores. The former India skipper ended the Australian tour with a match-winning half-century and followed it up with two centuries on the trot against South Africa at home.
