5 things that Virat Kohli learnt from Mahendra Singh Dhoni

Kohli-Dhoni partnership promises to take Indian cricket to new heights

#3 Taking the onus to win the match for the team

Kohli has taken over the role of winning matches for India from Dhoni

Kohli at the moment is playing like a man who has no limits to his abilities. The Indian captain is in that zone where it would be no crime to think that he can win matches for the country on his own. The Delhi batsman lets off his disappointment when he is unable to take his team across the finish line.

Dhoni himself has come to be known as one of the greatest finishers the game has ever seen. The wicketkeeper started off as a care-free batsman thrashing the ball around. But when the situation demanded, Dhoni moulded his game to ensure that India won more matches.

Kohli’s predecessor put himself in tough situations lower down the order, put a heavy price on his wicket, and stitched several memorable partnerships to guide the team home.
