Virat Kohli defends decision to keep Parvez Rasool on bench =>India skipper Virat Kohli feels it was "unfortunate" that Parvez Rasool could not get a game during the just-concluded ODI series against Zimbabwe but insisted that the Jammu and Kashmir all-rounder just did not fit into the team`s bowling plans during the tour."I`m not really bothered about what`s being said about people getting chances, because a lot of people who have played these five games have been sitting on the bench for two months or so," Kohli said when queried about not including Rasool, who could have become the first J&K cricketer to play for the Indian team. "Parveez is going to South Africa now for the India A tour and he`s going to play a lot of games there and pick up more experience. He could have been given a chance but I just didn`t want to take a chance with the bowling line-up, leaving someone like Jadeja out," he added.
