Is Rahane Captaincy In Test A Danger For Virat Kohli? Here Are Some views Of Formers On It

By IANS News January 21, 2021 • 13:08 PM View: 1736

Ajinkya Rahane's ability to lead a weak Indian team, with many second string or young players to a Test series victory over Australia, has put pressure on regular skipper Virat Kohli to prove himself as a captain all over again.

Kohli, who returned home to attend the birth of his first child after the first Test debacle in Adelaide, will lead India against England in the first two Tests next month, and unless he wins those matches, calls for Rahane to replace him at the helm will get louder.
