Kohli made his debut under Dhoni’ s captaincy way back in 2008 and was instrumental in India winning so many close games during his tenure.

Known to have played a very important role in shaping Kohli’s career, Dhoni later passed on the captaincy to his the deputy Kohli, first in Tests in 2014 which was followed by taking over as India captain in all three formats.

Kohli’s form has been a matter of concern for India and with the big match coming up against Pakistan on Sunday in Asia Cup 2022, India can be hopeful that one of their best batters in the shorter format of the game comes back to form.

With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held right after the Asia Cup, it would do India’s chances a world of good to lift the trophy after 15 years, having won the inaugural season of the T20 World Cup held in South Africa in 2007.
