Muscat,
Virat Kohli, who led India for seven years as Test captain, resigned last week. Last year, the goalie stepped down as captain for the Twenty20 tournament, and then he was removed from the captaincy for the one-day tournament because the selectors wanted a single captain for the white-ball format.
Under the circumstances, “Virat Kohli did not leave the captaincy as he was. But he was compelled to do so. It was not the best moment for him, but he had to prove what he did.
Is he made of steel or iron? He is a great batsman and has achieved more than anyone else in the world. I think he will get out of this. He must move forward from this and not put any bitterness on anyone. Forgive everyone and keep moving, “said Shoaib Akhtar.
