Its too early for Virat he is learning it may take him some 3-4 years more to mature as a captain the problem with Indian selector is they want to make captain out of anybody who scores a ton captaincy is lot more then that , you have to read pitches the wind the dew and so many things , Like he made a blunder in reading this Pitch by not picking up good spinners and this was a turning wicket and he lost, so as i said he has to learn a lot he is no match to Skipper Dhoni the best seasoned captain India ever had.

s the wind the dew and so many other things have been taken into consideration by the previous captain tht is y we have a gud record overseas.grow up manl0l.dhoni undoubtedly is nt a bad captain agree.as long as results r positive no one is going to blame him.its only a change we need to try it out.only time will tel abt kohlis captaincy.1st test as a captain overseas will nt decide the fate of a captain as we havent done well either overseas in last 3 years or so.so why nt wait and then comment.

fixer captain vs passionate hot blooded youngster.. hard to choose
Koholi has been showing great consistent performance since he has been handed over captaincy of the present Indian cricket team. Moreover, he enjoys great respect from the team mates and do not hesitate to protect his junior players by saying EVERY ONE PLAYED WELL. WRIDDHI, SHAMI SHOULD NOT BE BLAMED AS I HAD PERMITTED THEM TO ATTACK THE BOWLERS WHICH BOTH OF THEM STARTED TO DO, EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED". This is a great spirit of a captain who leads from the front. He should be elevated to permanent captaincy of Indian team.

Virat is learning quickly. Probably for next test series he will be bestowed with full time captaincy as Dhoni is becoming old and he may not withstand the five day tests.
some body in the middle order should have supported kolhi, saha and some lower order batsmen went for rash shots and got out or else they could have saved this match. kolhi should instruct their batsmden not to go for rash shots depending on the circumstances,
Please dont promote Kholi and spoil his game.!!!! I am his FAN and would want to see him play his game without the pressure of captaincy...I think he is contributing best by his superb performance.!!!! Why does every good cricket need to be made a Captain!!! See what they did to Sachin, No, please no....I dont want to loose another good cricket to captaincy.!!! I bet Ian is jealous of Kholi that he wants to put his game under pressure. There is a chance Kholi would still perform even after being full-time captain. That that is once chance I do not want to take.

Kohli will continue to be a good player...he has a very good temperament, so we don't have to worry...fights fire with fire...never backs down
