Bit like appreciating West Indian cricket board for all the talents that are coming out of their country. Only good thing he has done is that too in Tests, is going in with bowler strong XI. But to offset that he went with trashy players like Rohit sharma while leaving out Rahane , Pujara in different times. Also in tests you can come back, you can take time. I bet Rahane/ Pujara would have been good captains as well. Anyway we are talking about one dayers here where he is clueless, also pathetic in pretty much every department. 1) Squad selection 2) Team selection 3) Pitch reading 4) Field placement 5) Bowling choices. 6) Attitude towards his team members. You could ignore IPL. But we can't. You gotta exhibit that you could put together a team that can win matches. Rohit won 3 times in his first 5 years. Dhoni has taken his side consistently to play offs. Gambhir resurrected a dud team KKR from the scratch and won the title twice. Even this year, Ashwin has been remarkable with his field placement, bowling rotation. Kohli on the other hand was clueless in every aspect. Rohit sharma looks 10 times better than Kohli. Even DK looks 100 times a better captain then kohli, i bet make pappu patel captain of RCB he ll do better then kohli. Link to comment

I totally disagree with your views.I won't look his captaincy in IPL prism. IPL it is toally different ball game team selections and player dynamics is totally different .Pujara and Rahane were dropped becuase they did nothing in previous series. Other than last two series Pujara was non factor in all overseas tours.Should he have given Rohit a chance who else was in the squad, Rohit has been around since 2007 and he has been getting chances from everyone.He is such kind of player which most captains are lured. Rahane was dropped for two testsin SA and he has played every test what has he done??? How is he clueless in onedays??? he has better winning percentage than any other Indian captain that too playing away from home. He has won away odi series where none of previous Indian teams won anything.He has redefined fast bowling in this country and is only Indian captain who is unafraid to lose a match to win it. What else do you want from a captain. Is he the brightest guy around no but he will only improve why are people in hurry to push him out without any valid reasons.He has become a beast with bat after he became captain.
