Virat Kohli on Saturday had stepped down from Test match captaincy. “Everything has to come to a halt at some stage and for me as Test captain of India, it’s now. There have been many ups and also some downs along the journey but there has never been lack of effort or lack of belief,” Kohli wrote in a press release which he posted on Twitter, taking everybody unexpectedly. He had requested his teammates and the help employees to maintain the information to themselves.
Virat Kohli led India in 68 matches and has been essentially the most profitable captain with 40 wins. Virat Kohli was appointed Test captain again in 2014 when MS Dhoni stepped down in the course of the collection towards Australia.
