Cricket News: Virat and Rohit back Ambati Rayudu for no 4 slot

Indian captain Virat Kohli has stamped his weight behind Ambati Rayudu for the critical number 4 spot in the Indian ODI team. Kohli was all praise for Rayudu who has displayed consistency in his batting performances since making a comeback to the side. The skipper deemed Rayudu as an intelligent batsman and as someone who has grabbed his chance with both hands. On the other hand, even vice-captain Rohit Sharma backed Ambati Rayudu as the ideal number for 4 batsman for India heading into the 2019 Cricket World Cup to be held in England. With both the captain and vice-captain strongly supporting him, Rayudu would be looking to continue his rich vein of form in the runs scoring department.
