Citing Mahendra Singh Dhoni as example, Virat Kohli says one doesn’t need to be a captain of a team to be a leader and now that he is not the India skipper, he might contribute more as the side’s batting mainstay.
Kohli shocked the cricketing world earlier this month when he stepped down from Test captaincy following the 1-2 series defeat in South Africa. He ended up as India’s most successful Test captain. His unexpected decision came after he stepped down from the T20 side before being removed as ODI skipper. During Digit’s Firseside Chat with VK, Kohli spoke how one can contribute to the team even when he is not its leader.
