#2 Workload off Kohli
Kohli is India’s best bet with the willow and easily is one of the top batsmen in the world today. He leads the country in all three formats of the game. He interacts with the international media after every victory, defeat, or tie. He fields like a livewire in the 30-yard circle and is a strong component of India’s dynamic on-field unit. He marshals the troops, he wins games with the bat, and he is never shy to give it back to the opposition with his performances as well as his words.
That is a lot of work for one human being.
Hence, if Sharma manages to take this one thing off the shoulders of India’s talisman, it might not be such a bad thing for Kohli as well as for the Indian team. There will be no dearth of responsibilities for the Indian skipper even then, but this one move might give him the much-required space to regroup and replenish from time to time.
