Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who has won two World Cups as the captain of the Indian team, resigned as captain in 2017. The opportunity then went to Virat Kohli. Appointed as the captain for all types of matches like Test, ODI, T20 after 2017, he took the Indian team to various heights.
Virat Kohli has announced his resignation as T20 captain following the recent T20 World Cup. Following this, Rohit Sharma was appointed as the T20 captain of the Indian team. The Indian team led by him won the recent T20 series against New Zealand 3-0.
In this situation, the captaincy of the Indian team for the ODI series has been taken away from Virat Kohli. The BCCI has officially announced that Rohit Sharma will be the captain for the upcoming ODI series. It has been revealed that Virat Kohli will no longer be the only captain in Test matches.
The Indian team, led by Virat Kohli, has played 95 ODIs so far. It has won 65 matches and lost 27 matches. 3 matches not over. But it is noteworthy that under his captaincy the Indian team did not even win an ICC trophy.
Virat Kohli also holds the record for most ODI centuries by a captain. He has 22 centuries as captain. Aussie Ricky Ponting has become the highest-scoring captain in the world. He has 23 cents. Virat Kohli had only one century left to catch this record. But now that the captain has been deposed it has become octagonal.
