Virat Kohli left T20 captaincy in the year 2021 and later he decided to leave Test and ODI captaincy also. Virat led the Test team for about 7 years, while captaining in ODI and Test for 5 years. Former Indian spin bowler Harbhajan Singh has given a big statement while talking about the captaincy of Virat Kohli. He believes that Virat Kohli is the reason why Team India is playing so well now.
Harbhajan Singh's big statement
Harbhajan believes that Team India is getting the benefit of the same fire which was lit by Virat Kohli during his captaincy days. He said in his conversation that even if you do not win the World Cup under Kohli's captaincy, it does not make him any less of a player and captain. Referring to the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2020-21, Harbhajan said that Virat Kohli had to leave the series in the middle of the third Test due to family reasons. Ajinkya Rahane was made the captain in his place.
Virat brought changes in Team India
The fire that Virat lit in the team made him achieve the target of 400 runs in the fourth innings of the Test without any panic. After this he remembered the Gabba Test, in which Rishabh Pant had shown a brilliant game and India won the match chasing a target of more than 300 on the last day and won the series. This happened because the mentality of Team India changed under the captaincy of Virat.
Virat Kohli's brilliant performance in test
Virat Kohli has led India in the maximum number of test matches so far. During this period, India has won the most matches under the captaincy of Virat. Kohli captained India in 68 Test matches, winning 40 matches, while India lost 17 matches. 11 matches were drawn.
Whereas MS Dhoni led India in 60 Test matches, in which Team India won 27 matches, while the team had to face defeat in 18 matches, 15 matches were drawn under the captaincy of Captain Cool. After Virat left the captaincy, Rohit Sharma is captaining India in Tests. Under his leadership, India participated in the 2023 final of the World Test Championship. But Team India had to face defeat at the hands of Australia.
