5 most confusing decisions taken by Virat Kohli as captain

Not playing Cheteshwar Pujara at Edgbaston

Pujara was not picked for the Edgbaston Test

Ever since Kohli took over as Test captain, the one player whose place has always come under scrutiny within the management has been that of Pujara. The right-hander, who plays only Test cricket for India and values it greatly, has constantly faced issues where he has had to be picked and dropped in the team.

The latest example was seen earlier in the ongoing series when Pujara was not picked for the first Test at Edgbaston with India preferring KL Rahul at 3.

After he endured two forgettable outings was only when Pujara was reinstated and he repaid the faith a few weeks later at Nottingham and also at Southampton.
