Indian Test skipper Virat Kohli spoke to the media personnel on Wednesday before departing with the team for their South Africa tour and put out many startling revelations about his conversations with BCCI. Kohli was removed from the captaincy role of the India ODI squad last week and Rohit Sharma was appointed as the ODI skipper of India, alongside the responsibility in the T20I format. 

During the press conference, Kohli refuted the claims earlier made by BCCI President Saurav Ganguly, who said Kohli was asked not to step down from the T20I captaincy, and Kohli went on to do hang his boots, which prompted BCCI to hand over the captaincy in both limited-overs format to the hands of Rohit Sharma. At the same time, Kohli also asserted his availability for the upcoming ODI series against South Africa and claimed he never asked to be rested. 

Meanwhile, the Indian Test skipper also expressed support for Rohit Sharma and coach Rahul Dravid in the ODI and T20I formats in the way ahead. Kohli also gave a strong reply to all the reports which claimed a reputed rift between him and Rohit by saying he is tired of answering the same question over and over again for the last two and a half years.
