4 strange calls taken by Virat Kohli as Captain that defy cricketing logic

#1 Dropping Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvaneshwar Kumar being dropped was shocking, to say the least

In the 1st Test in Cape Town, two players stood out for India: Hardik Pandya and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Bhuvneshwar was not only the best Indian bowler but also the one to face most deliveries among Indian batsmen. It was his three wickets in his first six overs that turned out to be the best phase of the match for team India.

What signal do you give to a hard working bowler by sidelining him after his stellar performance in the first match? It not only scarred Bhuvi's confidence but sent out a message to the entire team- no matter how well you perform, your place is not certain in the side.

Those who have played the sport at any level would tell you that how drastic the difference is in a player's output, when he is assured of his Captain's backing compared to when he is playing every match with uncertainty about his place in the side.
