No problems playing Sri Lanka ODIs, says Kohli

India captain Virat Kohli today (11) made it clear that he has no problems playing the upcoming limited overs series against Sri Lanka amid speculation that he may be rested keeping in mind a long season ahead.

"Who said I am not playing? I don't know where this came from, but I have no problems in playing," Kohli's forthright answer to a query regarding team selection made it clear as to where he stood on the issue.


The Indian team will be selected on August 13. There is a possibility that senior spinners like Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will be rested along with pacer Mohammed Shami.

"We (team management and selectors) are going to sit down on selection soon and we certainly have plans in mind and combinations that we want to speak about. So as captain, I am definitely in the thick of things and knowing what to speak to the committee about," he signed off.

England pupil mobile phone policy: Will schools have the resources to enforce it?

  • Schools will have to go beyond policies that allow pupils to keep switched-off phones in their bags.
  • Head teachers' unions warn that secure storage systems could create significant costs.
  • Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are taking different approaches to restricting phones in schools.

Schools in England are preparing for a stricter approach to mobile phones, with pupils expected to be unable to access their devices at any point during the school day from September 2027. But while ministers want to move beyond policies that allow phones to remain switched off in school bags, head teachers are questioning how they will pay for the change.

The government is strengthening its statutory guidance to ensure schools adopt measures that keep phones physically out of pupils' reach, rather than simply requiring them to remain unseen and unheard.
