These losses could be a blessing in disguise before WC, and in a way might help with the selection
This is a great point. The Indian team have been performing badly across all formats in recent times which is why big changes are necessary to help them rise back up in an efficient and effective manner.
I would say they are performing badly in white-ball cricket only. They are still a tough team to beat in tests despite their fuckery in a couple of matches.
I noticed that in this thread many posters are writing off Kohli in ODI but IMO he's a GOAT in this format. In modern cricket, no one comes close to him so I'll bet on him without any doubt.
