Cricket News : Kohli said there was no prior communication with BCCI on ODI captaincy

Kohli said that when he had decided to quit as T20I captain, just before his last assignment in the role at the T20 World Cup, the BCCI had "accepted really well" his decision to step down. 

"Whatever was said about the communication that happened about the decision that was made was inaccurate. I was contacted one-and-a-half hour before selection for Tests. The chief selector discussed with me the Test squad. Before the call ended, I was told that the five selectors have decided that I won't be ODI captain anymore. There was no prior communication about this," Kohli said in Wednesday's press conference.

I informed at that time that I would like to lead in ODIs and Tests.

Kohli also clarified that he will be available for the three-match ODI series and had never asked for a break, contrary to media reports earlier this week.
"I am available for selection for ODIs in South Africa," Kohli said. "People are writing lies. I have never asked for rest," he added.
