Captain Kohli, I'm going to miss his charisma as a test captain in the field.

India's Test captain, Virat Kohli, has resigned from his position. What kind of captain did he seem to be? Let's see how good he was both as a captain and a player.

The impacts

Indian cricketers did not field a full complement of five qualified bowlers, despite the presence of Test batsmen such as Dravid and Tendulkar. The ability to break free of the defensive mentality that has become ingrained in Indian society requires tremendous courage. Virat Kohli has played a significant role in the improvement of the team's current pace bowling unit. Ishant Sharma has established himself as one of the best Test bowlers in the world during his time as a professional. A significant difference exists between Ishant's performance prior to Kohli's arrival and Ishant's performance during Kohli's tenure with the team. Under Kohli's leadership, Shami has been able to maximize his abilities to the greatest extent possible. The same goes for Mohammed Siraj too. Maybe the most impressive example of how well Mohammad Siraj was during the time of Virat Kohli's captaincy was when he wore the
If Hardik Pandey's fitness had been better, Kohli's India would have performed better both at home and in international competition.

The stats

  • Indian captain Virat Kohli has become the first Asian captain to win a Test series in Australia.
  • Kohli has won six Tests at the homes of SENA countries, the most of any Asian captain in this format.
  • Virat Kohli has won more matches as captain than Graeme Smith, Ricky Ponting, and Steve Waugh combined in tests.
  • Captain Kohli has been India's most successful Test captain in the country's history. In his time, India played 68 matches. The team had 40 victories, 11 draws, and 16 defeats. Virat has won 13 more games than Dhoni in his career. During Kohli's captaincy, India has won every series (11) on home soil that they have played.

Some other impressive stats achieved by Captain Kohli.

  • Kohli is the only Indian captain to have led his team to four victories away from home in a calendar year, which they accomplished in 2016 and 2021.

  • Kohli has only lost two matches in his career on home soil, which is a very impressive stat for a captain. India have won 16 away Tests under Kohli's captaincy, the most of any Indian captain in the history of the game (Sourav Ganguly has 11).

  • While serving as captain, Kohli amassed 5460 runs at an average of 54.6 runs per innings.

  • He currently has six double centuries and 20 centuries to his credit.

  • Kohli is the only captain to have scored more centuries than Graeme Smith (25) in his career.

  • Kohli has the highest batting average among captains who have captained their teams in at least 50 test matches.

Not only because of his statistics, but also because of his presence, his sense of humor, and the energy he brought to the game.
