While a lot of fans may argue that Rohit Sharma is a better captain than Virat Kohli in T20Is.

The Indian innings in the 4th ODI is the best example of how weak the Indian batting line-up becomes without Virat Kohli.

Kohli has been rested for the upcoming 3-match T20I series and this will definitely increase New Zealand's chances of winning the T20I series. India may not miss Virat Kohli, the captain in the series but the team will undoubtedly be not same without Virat Kohli, the batsman. The Delhite has won a lot of matches for his team in the T20I format. His chasing skills are unmatched and so, he will be dearly missed in the T20I series.
