Kohli-Kumble Fiasco: Fans Want MS Dhoni Back As Captain

The last few days have been quite tough from an Indian cricket fan’s perspective. The buildup to the just-concluded Champions Trophy was marred with reports of rift between captain Virat Kohli and coach Anil Kumble. But fortunately, Kohli rubbished all those reports and India’s performance on the field suggested that the team was in high spirit. The Men in Blue blew away almost all the teams that came in its way as they stormed into their second consecutive and fourth Champions Trophy final.

The way the team was playing, each and every fan was harbouring hopes of seeing the Men in Blue defeat Pakistan in the summit clash and end the tournament on a high. However, nothing has panned out as expected for the Indian fans. The disappointing series of events began with India suffering a humiliating loss against Pakistan and ended with Kumble stepping down from his post. What was even more disappointing was the circumstances under which Kumble resigned.

The former India skipper, whose contract had ended after the Champions Trophy, was given the option to coach the team for at least one more series. However, Kumble chose to walk away after knowing Virat Kohli’s reservations over his ‘style’ of coaching.

The whole fiasco has left Indian cricket in a turmoil and the fans are now demanding the return of MS Dhoni as the captain of India. In addition to being India’s most successful captain, Dhoni has also been hailed one of the best man managers and fans want him to bail Indian cricket out of trouble by becoming the captain once again.

Here are what the fans said:
