Someone has said that when the team is weak, it needs a captain who not only saves it from every difficulty but also keeps the team’s glory in every effort of the team. After 2015, there have been many such occasions when the captaincy of Virat Kohli has been questioned, but initially, it seemed that it would be too early to question. Time changed but the result remained the same, whether it was limited-overs cricket or Test cricket, Virat Kohli raised the flags of captaincy like no other. Where Virat Kohli in limited-overs cricket.
- 2017 Champions Trophy final lost against Pakistan
- And the second time when 2019 World Cup semi-final match lost to New Zealand
Let’s not look at Virat’s limited-overs cricket records because Test cricket makes a player great, then Virat Kohli’s record in test cricket might have been better but there too Virat Kohli’s captaincy has been a flop.
- Sometime back ago India lost in the finals of the World Test Championship against New Zealand.
What’s the use of more than 7000 runs and maybe a test average of close to 50. While in the recent test match where England bundled out India for just 78 runs which also included Virat Kohli as a captain. A player can be a great batsman but a great captain are two different things. But now is the time when Virat Kohli should play as a batsman and not as a captain.
If Virat Kohli will do his own runs, no one will have any problem but it is not right to spoil the captaincy post like this. Till when will his arrogant captaincy be justified by Virat, where the thinking of the team’s selection does not look anywhere. The absence of a player like Ashwin in the team shows clear thinking that Virat Kohli only knows how to play the players of his choice. And more than this, when the presence of Anil Kumble can spoil the team, then what can happen in front of you. Virat Kohli this is professional cricket, not club cricket where you do your own thing all the time.
There have been many comparisons of Virat with great captains but that is absolutely wrong because he is just a modest captain who only knows how to make his runs.
