Kohli can turn to Dhoni for advice

MS Dhoni has one of the best tactical brains to build strategies and plan for the team. His ability to analyse the match and the situation is a massive advantage for the Indian team and the current captain.

As a captain, Virat is usually considered an aggressive leader for a young Indian team. On the other hand, Dhoni has excellent temperament and is typically very calm and composed under pressure. The 36-year-old can be a spectacular mentor to groom Kohli in becoming a more stable captain to lead the young Indian team. In most of the matches, Kohli is seen interacting with Dhoni regarding any changes made during the game. This can be a great learning opportunity for Kohli.
