The puzzle is solved on one side and it gets confused on the other side. The whole world was waiting for the press conference on 15th December at 1 pm. From playing the ODI series on the South African tour, Virat came to the fore and put an end to the news of his rift with Rohit. But those who spoke on the captaincy of T20 have torn Indian cricket in two. The story is more complicated than solved.
then remembered your story
The wheel of time has turned again. Where is Virat standing today? Exactly 16 years and three months ago, Ganguly had the same condition. Sourav used to be the captain of Team India then. Poor performance had him thrown out of the team. Coach Greg Chappell wrote a scathing e-mail complaining to the BCCI. Said that Sourav is not fit for captaincy. He is hurting the team. The captaincy was snatched and given to Rahul Dravid. Just like today Rohit has replaced Virat.
Then the Indian board supported Ganguly
In the struggle and difficult times, Ganguly found the BCCI standing by his side. Then Board President Ranbir Singh Mahendra issued a statement to the media in support of Ganguly in crisis and said that the coach and the cricketer should maintain a professional relationship. Due to the board’s support and tremendous efforts, Ganguly returned to the Indian team after 10 months. Not so with Kohli. He would be embarrassed not by poor form, but by being dropped from captaincy on a phone call.
Is injustice being done to Kohli?
There was no discussion between the BCCI and Kohli regarding the change in captaincy. Given the Chappell and Ganguly case, this cannot be considered good off-the-field behavior by any means. Those who understand the whole matter closely say – Kohli needs BCCI at the moment. The board needs to address the embarrassment, anger and frustration that Kohli must be going through. Now the question arises whether Ganguly (BCCI President) should also not support his junior cricketer in the same way as the board once stood by him.
