‘What Virat Kohli did not do in India, what MS Dhoni cannot do’: Former England captain | Cricket news

Former England captain Michael Vaughan has shaken the cricket world with his explosive comments in view of Virat Kohli’s sudden retirement from Test cricket. While he praised Kohli for fulfilling India’s passion for the format of the Red-Cold, Vauan compared Kohli’s legacy M. Not returned compared to Dhoni, saying, “MS Dhoni was one of the great white-head players, but felt that he captained a test team, who needed to love to love in love. Test cricketAnd this is what Virat promoted as captain. ,Dhoni, who captained India in 60 tests, won 27 wins, 18 defeats and 15 draws with a win percentage of 45%. While Dhoni inspired India to become a major force at home, Kohli had low record of 6 wins compared to 16.Kohli, who led India 40 wins in 68 tests, represented India in 123 tests, scored an average of 9,230 runs in 46.85 including 30 centuries.Vaughan wrote in his telegraph column, “There are not many Test retirements, where I am really disappointed that I will not watch the game of cricketer again. But I think we will not see Virat Kohli in England in England or any more whites in this summer.”
“I am surprised that he is retiring now, and I am also very sad about it. In my time, more than 30 years in the game, I believe that there is no person who has done more for the test format than Virat.”Vaughan highlighted Kohli’s significant impact on Test cricket, especially during his captaincy tenure.The 50 -year -old, who served as the England Test captain from 2003 to 2008, said, “When he was under captaincy a decade ago, I was worried that India was losing interest in Test cricket,” 50 -year -old said, who served as the England Test captain from 2003 to 2008.Quiz: Who is that IPL player?“His passion, skill, and the way he talked about Test cricket, has always been a big shot of the summit as a peak, a huge shot in hand for the format. Test cricket will be very far away without him, and there is a chance that he would lose his appeal and does not invest if he is not interested.”Vaughan considers Kohli the greatest player in all formats and looks at his retirement as a significant disadvantage to test cricket.“His retirement is now a shock to test cricket and is very disappointing for fans – not at least in England in this summer – but my belief is that he has helped to create a love for the format between the generation that will follow him, and the flame will continue to burn.”
“It is impossible to compare in every era, but if you look after T20 about 20 years ago, he is almost certainly the greatest player when you consider all three formats.”Addressing Kohli’s criticism about on-field aggressive behavior, Vauan offered a different view.“All great players have Egos, but perhaps Virat was not as big as we thought. Perhaps family life has turned him a bit, and he simply wants a normal life as much as he may do as he is probably going to London, where he spends a lot of time now.”“Outside that bubble they can’t really imagine that it is like being Kohli or Sachin Tendulkar, with pressure to like billions of fans on your shoulders.”
