Virat Kohli Captaincy thread

[beetle]

Kumble and kohli are both strong personalities. That rarely works out.

 

I think this will temper down kohli too.

He has had his disagreement and most probably his way too. He can't do this again. 

 

He is getting support from bcci because they want kumble out for stabbing then when they were at war with icc.They won't support him always.

 

Kohli will probably emerge weaker after this ...having used up all his weapons already.remember...home series are over.

 

He will really have to show huge success on the field to get back his power and goodwill.

 Good for us.

Guha out. It seems it was him who had advised Kumble to demand 1.5 times salary hike without understanding basic BCCI pay/finance structure. I hope it all coils down now.

Unlike few icf smartasses i am not going to berate one for other. They both are needed but we need Kohli more

I agree. BCCI makes a big mistake by having same captain for all formats. There should be three different captains. If Kumble goes so should Kohli lose his captaincy. COA is correct.

Wrong. In India, multiple leaders only create more problems. It's good that there is one single leader for the different formats. And if the other players support Kohli, then it's Kumble alone who should leave.

Too much concentrated power causes more problems. When Dhoni left Kohli start giving more opportunities to pace bowler. Three captains will have less power in had of a player. Moreover once again a radical concept but cricket does not need captains. They should be rotated.

Not good to see SC appointed CoA making such statements for the media. Didn't SC intervene because they wanted more transparency and professionalism? And what is fair in this case? Surely, when both the captain and other players are having issues with the coach, it's the coach who should be fixed. Just because he is a legend, doesn't make him right each time.

[Khota]

On principle you are correct. CoA is overstepping its bounds but the underline thing they say is correct. But have to agree with you CoA has no business talking about it.

[putrevus]

Kohli or any captain should have all the power and not the coach or selectors. The win and loss record goes under his name not anyone else.

 

You need one captain in all formats.If selectors do not feel Kohli is not right they have right to remove him.

No there should be one captain as much as possible else players get different messages and more chances of friction and confusion. Though I'm not sold on Kohli's captaincy in shorter formats, there's no other player who's alternate candidate at this point in time.

Disagree. Stability is the most important aspect here and one captain for all formats is the right way in India. And we are not talking about just a normal player, Kohli is the best, most popular player now and with strong leadership skills. He is the right candidate in all formats.

 

And cricket is not football, the coach/manager can't do much and really it's the captain who makes all the decisions on the match-day and pitch.

If they are bringing everything out to public, can they also point out the differences between them? At what point do they clash?

If BCCI is to bend backwards as per Kohli's wish, they're running a great risk of creating another Dhoni within the team. Kumble is the right person to maintain that balance. 

 

Why so many dislikes? All power in the hands of captain is marking graveyard for future.

[Austin 3:!6]

Yes these kind of drama is what we needed before such an important game in Champions trophy

Cant these idiots (both BCCI and COA) wait for the tourney to get over? Absolute morons

[Gollum]

Reminds me of 2009 T20 in England. There also we won both warm ups plus the Dhoni-Viru tiff.

[putrevus]

Who is leaking these stories and why is it coming out and not during IPL or after CT. Someone is trying to sabotaging India's chances.

Sehwag is kind of player who will bring out shortcomings of players in press conferences. Someone like Zaheer Khan would be ideal for the team.  They are better off with Kumble than him.
