Odi Captaincy Gone From Virat Kohli's Hand

 As Par The Report BCCI Gives 48 Hours To Kohli, To Voluntarily Step Down From Odi Captaincy. By The 49th Hour, Management Decided To Make Rohit Sharma As Permanent Captain Of Odi Beacuse No Any Kind Of Response Came From Virat Kohli.

According To Few Of The Sources Virat Hasn't Quit Captaincy From T20I But Few Of Them Said Virat Himself Decided To Skip T20i Captaincy & He Announced On Social Media By Pictures Sharing. But He Had Not Mentioned That He Doesn't Quit From Odi Captaincy. 

God Knows What The Matter, From Virat Kohli Still Not Confirmation Coming Yet.

So As Of Now India Will Tour To South Africa To Play Three Test Matches & Three One Day Internationals From December Mid. Officially Rohit Sharma Announced As Odi Captain.

Virat Kohli As Odi Captain Registered Extraordinary Records So Far, Unfortunately He Hasn't Bagged Any Icc Events. This Is The Only Reason To Dropped Him From Captaincy.

PIC CORTESY - BCCI

Virat Kohli & Wankhade Loved Each Other Since 2011, Where King Scored Two Consecutive 50+ Scores Against West Indies  in 2011/12 Seasons. Without Virat Kohli Their Is No Aggression On The Field & Fans Were Slow Down Themselves It Is History Says. Kanpur Test Was So Close To Win For India But One Thing Was Fully Missed That Was King Kohli's Absence &/ The Rotation Of Bowling. 

So It Is World Test Championship India Never Wanted To Loose A Single Match At Home Specially. Already They Lose Two Test Matches In This WTC Cycle. 

Virat Opted To Bat First The Start Was Good As Expected But The Conversion Of Score Card Wasn't, India Only Managed To Get 325 On The Board & It Was Too Low That History Said At Wankhade. 

Mayank Agarwal Shines With Bat Got 150 & No Other Got A Single Fifty Against Kiwis. Poor Umpiring Continues From Anil Chaudhary Where Virat Trapped This Time Although Third Umpire Did The Same By Using UDRS .
