Subjective way of looking at this

 

Kohli is good at handling fast bowlers and 5th bowler, Dhoni was decent  at handling spinners and when he had limited resources.

 

If Dhoni used to play the same team over and over despite drubbing after drubbing,Kohli changes the core of the team pretty much every other match as his record states.

 

Kohli makes the side as the best player in the team where as Dhoni was even though never the best player in Indian team  , at least for what it’s worth till 2011-2012 he was the best keeper bat in India as unfortunate as that was. Even though his keeping to pacers was a let down he was better than the Karthik’s and Pappus of the world and his keeping to spinners was world class.

 

That made him the most assured player in the side as well just like Kohli.

 

Kohli has his favorites and Dhoni had his.

 

Both preferred yes men as coaches.

 

What makes Kohli a little more endearing is purely as a cricketer  he is leagues ahead of Dhoni and he is excellent at handling fast bowling which is refreshing to see compared to our previous captains.

 

Apart from that they are 2 peas from the same

pod. They are just on the extreme sides of the spectrum...when we get a captain somewhere in the middle that is when we will have the perfect captain.Kohli is still young and since there is no alternative currently has time on his hands to

imorove and truly become the best captain ever but right now, he is not that good.

So we get thrashed overseas if we stick to one team and also if we change it...

 

That means fundamentaly India is tatti in the concept of overseas test tours and the players dont give it enough importance.

 

Kohlis rating is purely down to his home test record.. im eagerly awaiting the coming tours to show him his true place
