• MS Dhoni supports Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli playing in the 2027 ICC Cricket World Cup, emphasizing that performance and fitness are key, not age.
• Dhoni made these remarks at an event, stressing that experienced players are crucial and cannot be found in younger, less experienced individuals.
• He highlighted that players should not be dictated to based on age and that everyone should be treated equally, with fitness being the only mandatory criterion.
• Rohit and Virat have faced scrutiny due to fewer ODIs, making their participation in domestic cricket like the Vijay Hazare Trophy vital for form and fitness.
