Rohit Sharma should captain India in LOIs

[marlonbrowndo]

Very enjoyable loss in the semi final for India. I think it’s time to make Rohit ODI and T20 captain. He is more composed and better tactically. Let Kohli focus on his batting and test captaincy

 

[MenInG]

Nothing to do with captaincy this defeat - down to individuals.

Rohit bottled the final as much as captain Kohli and the gutless Dhoni. It's a shame that Dhoni didn't bring his gloves with 'Indian Army daggers' out again as his gutless performance reminds me of Abhinandan the Air Force pilot )

 

[Hasan123]

I think Kohli captaincy has been fine in this tournament. Indias problem has been the middle order batting.

 

[Aman]

Yeah, he probably should.

Let Kohli focus on his batting.

 

[Syed1]

Kohli's ego will not allow it. He has been hyped up to be a king and he himself thinks that way, cannot imagine him taking direction from someone else.

 

[Green Patriot]

I do think Rohit is a better captain,though Virat is improving everyday.
But their captaincy hasn't been the reason for the loss.Their new ball bowling wasnt as effective as NZ in terms of wicket taking and their top order failed today and the middle order bar Jadeja didnt turn up to the party like always.So it was the players who lost them this.

I meant in general

Virat Kohli is their greatest active cricketer by quite some margin. India has been playing brilliant cricket under him in all formats. There is no need to change captains. India's loss was due to the wrong team selection.

Kohli's ego will not allow it. He has been hyped up to be a king and he himself thinks that way, cannot imagine him taking direction from someone else.

Unfortunately, Kohli is nowhere as talented as Viv, Tendulkar or ABD, he's only at the top level due to his insane work ethics. However as his reflexes start slowing down, he will fall off a cliff.

The only GOAT level batsman who was a decent captain was Ponting. Kohli is neither, he should at least try to improve his batting.

He did lose his only review on the first ball...

 

[Deewana]

People won't agree just because Jadeja fluked some runs India made a blunder not playing Shami and Coldeep
Kiwis were all at sea vs these two innthe series in Nz earlier this year..
Gutless selection because they wanted some depth in batting
if those 2 played Nz wouldn't have made 200..not playinh Kuldeep is like dropping Warne on a rank turner.. shamelss kohli and ravi

and i should get Nobel price for medicine although i have never studied biology even at GCSE level... you cannot be serious about this...? Rohit Sharma was the luckiest dude in this WC ... catches after catches were dropped before he scored runs... and u comparing him to Kholi ... take kholi out today and india wont win a game .... I wont mind it to be honest lol given i am your opposition but really for indians sake dont do it lol

 

[lehen]

Kohli is India's worst captain since Sachin and now he is no more a dependable bat when the going gets tough, He needs to be stripped off the leadership and Shastri destroyed Indian cricket since 2017 itself, Indian team needs wholesale changes

 

[imrankhannsu]

This was bound to happen really. The guy kept on scoring.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

He did lose his only review on the first ball...

And that was an umpire call.
But yeah who cares for logic, rub it in its your day.

 

[Ozymandiasza]

But yeah who cares for logic, rub it in its your day.

He did lose India both their reviews. I'm honestly not sure he's the man for the job.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

He isn't a good loi captain but he didn't fail as a captain today.

 

[Plumb]

I called it long ago that Sharma will be a better captain than kohli. As far as this defeat goes it was again the top order who caused it, they didn't learn from CT17 or their previous experiences.

 

[sazz]

Me thinks the same. Let kohli focus on his batting. With dhoni to retire soon, we need a calm leader.

 

[hb787]

Captaincy wasn’t the problem. Middle order was.
