Now Viral Kohli is all in one for the Indian cricket. Virat Kohli is set take full control of the Indian cricket team across all formats to carry forward the legacy of World Cup winning former skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
The selectors, who meet here on Friday to pick the squad for the three-match ODI series and T20I series against England are expected to name Test skipper Kohli as full time captain for the limited overs cricket as well.
Dhoni stepped down as ODI and T20I skipper on Wednesday. His decision may be unexpected but his timing was perfect, as selectors had given the signal that Kohli is ready to take over the leading role in the shorter formats as well.
Dhoni has made himself available to play under a new captain so he still remains the best bet as a wicket keeper-cum batsman. The selectors have a job in hands as many players are injured giving hope to fringe players to either make comeback or break into the Indian team.
