The BCCI has made it mandatory for contracted cricketers to play domestic cricket unless they are injured or playing for the national team. This is the reason why Virat Kohli, who lives in London, has to play in this domestic tournament after 15 years. Earlier this year, Kohli was the center of attraction in a Ranji Trophy match, playing his first first-class match in over 12 years.

The 37-year-old Kohli scored his 52nd century in the series opener in Ranchi, showing that he is in good form despite playing just one format of the game since announcing his retirement from Test cricket earlier this year. Kohli retired from T20 Internationals after India won the 2024 World Cup in Barbados. He now wants to end his cricket career after playing the ODI World Cup in 2027. Rohit Sharma, who retired from Test cricket before the England tour, is also expected to play for Mumbai in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. But head coach Gautam Gambhir is standing firm against the intentions of both the veterans to play in the World Cup.
