This year has been a troubled year for Virat Kohli, who captained the Indian team in all forms of cricket. Rumors arose that many were openly speaking out that there was no harmonious environment between the team management and the goalie.
Under such circumstances, the goalie announced his resignation from the post of T20 captain after the Twenty20 World Cup series. Goalie had announced that he would not be taking over as T20 captain in order to focus more on one-day and Test matches. Following this, Kohli announced his resignation as the captain of the RCB team in the IPL. Various criticisms arose as India exited the league round of the Twenty20 World Cup series.
However, India successfully completed the T20 and Test series against New Zealand. Following this, everyone’s attention turned to the South Africa series. On the 8th, the BCCI removed the goalie from the post of captain for one-day cricket and appointed Rohit Sharma as the new captain. This came as a huge shock to the fans. The BCCI officials said that it would be better for the team to have the same captain for both the WHITE BALL matches.
Ganguly VS Goalie!
Speaking on the occasion a few days ago, BCCI President Ganguly said that the T20 captain had urged Kohli not to step down. But Test captain Virat Kohli, who spoke ahead of the Test series with South Africa, said his removal from the one-day captaincy had not been discussed in advance. Goalie said no one was urging the T20 captain not to step down.
Despite the goalie’s record of captaincy in one – day cricket, the BCCI’s removal of him from the captaincy is still something that fans can not digest. Goalie stressed that Kadukal would not reduce his game or desire to play for India under any circumstances outside the field. Fans have been waiting with great anticipation as to whether the goalie will shine, revealing his previous aggressive batting without the pressure of captaincy.
