Frankly before start of the Aus series no one expected the type of turn of events seen for team India and more so individually for Virat Kohli so soon after taking over from Dhoni! In fact Kohli was on a high expected to give a 4-0 drubbing to a weakest ever Aus side to join legends among the best captains of the world !But in reality captain 'VIRAT' seems to have shrunk’ instead the way now he allows a match in pocket to to give India 2-1 series lead slip out of grasp and then comes up with such excuses ? More than Virat's bat doing the talking his shoulder, his physio and his on/off-field antics seem to be doing all the talking making headlines for all the wrong reasons! Wonder what struck him so suddenly to make him look a totally different and “shrunk Virat” ? Is he rattled by the unexpected resistance shown by Smith &co. who seems to be winning the race of captaincy comfortably anyway? When it comes to Virat’s batting he seems to be oscillating between total freeze to a provoked wild slashing of the bat eyes wild shut as if he is getting even with the Aus team and their media !Considering that Virat-Ashwin duo were mainly winning matches for India but suddenly the jugalbandi with their underperformance seem to be taking the team Indian down with no apparent explanation! Overwork is the only visible explanation with Ashwin looking so jaded as to be not able to pitch the ball in the rough or in the right areas even once!

(contd.)So where is the question of his taking wicket ? One silver lining is the way sir jadeja has more than made up for Ashwin’s let down and the likes of Pujara , Saha and Murali Vijay have come to the rescue with team India just managing to stay afloat. Given this background of the world No.1 team India’s roller coaster ride from Pune to Ranchi is there any doubt that it is more of Rambharose at Dharmshala ?
WELL KHOLI ITS A JUST A GAME. ITS NOT A WAR. HATS OFF TO PUJARA, SAHA AND JADEJA PLAYED GREAT GAME AND PUT INDIA AHEAD OF AUSTRALIA. BE BRAVE ENOUGH TO ADMIT THAT OPPOSITION TEAM PLAYED WELL.
Good going Mr. Kohli.Now, you truly stepped into MS shoes. As MS you too have ready answers for your failures. The good thing is you are supporting and backing your players as MS does.

He is not fully following Dhobi. Dhobi will always tell batsmen failed or bowlers done not well if india is defeated but never accept his failure as keeper/skipper/batsmen. He will praise himself for success. kohli has brainfade since he is not batting well
