Split captaincy does not work in India : Dhoni

“Split captaincy does not work in India”, said Mahendra Singh Dhoni as he explained his shock decision to step down from India’s limited-overs leadership and asserted that the team under Virat Kohli will rewrite history by becoming the most successful ever.

Dhoni, who stunned the Indian cricket fraternity with his decision to quit captaincy ahead of the ODI series against England which begins on Sunday, said he does not believe in having different captains for different formats.
