‘Virat Kohli wanted to win, but he was…’: Former Pakistan player alleges | Cricket News – Act Daily News

NEW DELHI: Virat Kohli owns a plethora of data in worldwide cricket however with regards to his captaincy, an ICC trophy has eluded him. However, he led the crew to quite a few victories, below his captaincy, India achieved their first-ever Test sequence victory in Australia throughout the 2018-2019 season.

Kohli relinquished the T20I and Test captaincy on his personal whereas he was requested to step down from the ODIs.
Former Pakistan wicket-keeper Rashid Latif reckons Kohli had in him to steer the crew to a world title but it surely was the interior points throughout the crew that hindered India’s aspirations for an ICC trophy.

“Virat Kohli had a direction and he wanted to win, but he was sacked. The team couldn’t perform due to internal issues. They couldn’t perform in ICC tournaments because, maybe, the captain didn’t get the desired players. Or maybe he got it, but they weren’t used,” Latif mentioned in a video on his YouTube channel.

“Their team is still pretty good, they will get a no.4. The problem begins when the top-3 gets dismissed quickly. If the top-3 plays out the 25-30 overs, they will win easily. Their issue is the top-3 isn’t performing how it used to. They could’ve brought back Shikhar Dhawan, you had made him captain less than a year ago during a tour. You had players, you threw them here and there,” he added.
Kohli, who isn’t a part of the continuing T20I sequence in opposition to the West Indies, will now be seen in motion within the Asia Cup scheduled to start from August 30.
