Virat Kohli has had a very good outing as a captain ever since India's 2019 World Cup 2019 debacle. After whitewashing the West Indies across all formats, the Virat Kohli-led side registered a clean sweep against South Africa in the Test series recently. By the virtue of this win, India are comfortably placed at the summit of the ICC World Test Championship rankings with 240 points from five matches. Kohli has been rested or the upcoming three-match T20I series against Bangladesh which starts from November 3. However, it seems that he is trying to bring out the best creative techniques from his fans.

Rohit to captain India in T20Is

As Virat Kohli has been rested for the limited-overs series, his deputy Rohit Sharma will be donning the captain's hat. Kohli will be back to lead India in the two-match Test series which will be played at Indore and Kolkata respectively. Meanwhile, the second Test at the iconic Eden Gardens scheduled from November 22-26 will be a day-night affair which will also mark the first-ever pink ball international Test in India. Virat Kohli, on the other hand, will be hoping to add some more valuable points in India's World Test Championship tally and aim to surpass Steve Smith to become the top-ranked batsman in the longest format of the game once again.
