I don't have anything against Kohli as such, although it is true that he was given too many opportunities. IMO, he should concentrate and focus more on the test format. But he is not ready to do that, because obviously there is more glitz with the T20 format. And now with Ganguly out of the BCCI, he doesn't feel the threat from selectors as well. Rohit was injured, so don't want to comment on his batting. But as a captain, so far his performance has been disappointing. These guys (Rohit, Rahul.etc) are not captaincy material.

Despite injury Rohit played a genuine knock yesterday (thanks to poor fielding of Bangladesh) and took India very close to victory. BCCI is no doubt growing financially but on quality of cricket they are going down and down. I am sure nobody will question kohli for his bad performance. He is a celebrity that's why he will remain in team for ever.
He will no longer be able to retain his position in the way he  has begun to perform. However, after deserving Kohli's performance, the cricket board should have been thought even before it. He was given  many opportunities before the T20 World Cup, where i doubt whether any other cricketer will get such opportunity. Since the large number of good cricketers are waiting, it is very important to give new opportunities to them. Because Kohli is discovered or come from that position.
