Virat Kohli is the best captain after MS Dhoni, won't be affected by criticism, says Kamran Akmal

Kamran Akmal said that those questioning Virat Kohli's captaincy are "people who have not even led a gully team".

There have been questions raised on Virat Kohli's captaincy after India lost the World Test Championship (WTC) final to New Zealand, but veteran Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman Kamran Akmal feels that these worries are not valid. Akmal said that Kohi is a great captain and India's defeats in the 2017 Champions Trophy final and the 2019 World Cup semi-final is not his fault. "Virat Kohli is the best captain after MS Dhoni. He has 70 (international) centuries. He played the Champions Trophy and the 2019 World Cup. Sure enough, India lost but what is his fault in it? India have remained the No. 1 Test for five years. Look at his achievements, his service, his captaincy is terrific. There is no doubt about it. He is an amazing player and the way he has prepared himself is phenomenal," Akmal said in a video chat on Youtube.
