Sourav Ganguly: Kohli’s success as Test skipper has put Dhoni under pressure

Mumbai: A day after former India opener Aakash Chopra opined that MS Dhoni can play under Virat Kohli’s leadership, ex-India skipper Sourav Ganguly has said that Kohli’s success as Test skipper has put Dhoni under pressure.

Since the time Dhoni handed over Test captaincy to Kohli, India have won five Test series in a row. The Kohli-led unit has not lost a Test in their last 18 outings. While Dhoni, India’s World Cup-winning skipper, has continued to lead the side in ODIs and T20s, Kohli’s rapid rise as India’s Test skipper has led to calls of him replacing the Jharkhand maverick in the leadership in the limited-overs cricket.
