Cricket fans wants again Dhoni as a captain

 Virat Kohli is a dashing batsman in the current Indian team. He did not make centuries on the centuries but he is credited with winning India in many matches. He took charge of the three formats and was giving the team victory. In this order the team increased the reputation. India 'A' coach Rahul Dravid has demanded that thousands of cricket fans in the social media have to avoid Kohli if they want to make a decision on the role of Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh in the squad in the 2019 World Cup.

The fan following that former Indian skipper MS Dhoni has is certainly unmatched by any other player at the moment. The fans of Dhoni came to the fore yet again when they demanded their hero to return as the skipper of the Indian cricket team. Team India has had a decent time on the field in the recent times. They made it to the finals of the ICC Champions Trophy this year before losing to Pakistan in the ultimate game.

Currently, the team has arrived in West Indies for limited overs fixtures. The on-field scenes for team India looks very fruitful at the moment. However, the thing that has been bothering the fans and the players is the off-field drama that has unfolded in the last couple of days. Anil Kumble stepped down as the coach of the Indian team and that has left a big void in the team management.

Needless to say, Kumble was a hard taskmaster who yielded great results for the team ever since he took charge last year. However, the overpowering attitude of Kumble did not go down well with the Indian players and that was reason for the bridge between the two parties. Also, in his post resignation note, Kumble noted that skipper Virat Kohli had issues with the way Kumble handled things.

This fall out between the coach and the captain is seeing the fans blame Virat Kohli for Kumble’s exit. Many have mocked Kohli to have ‘too much’ attitude. Now, the fans have added a new dimension to the story. They want MS Dhoni to come back as the captain of the Indian cricket team.

It is worth noting that MS Dhoni always maintained fruitful relationships with the coaches and the team management. Hence, it comes as no surprise why people want to see calm head Dhoni at the helm and not the hot head Kohli.
