Virat Kohli's captaincy in the series win against New Zealand has been spot on. He has made the right decision on the playing and given chances for the players to shine. After MS Dhoni's series win in 2009, Virat Kohli became the second Indian captain to win an ODI series on New Zealand soil.

He brought both his wrist spinners at the right time to break the partnerships. Mohammed Shami and Bhuvneshwar Kumar have been used superbly. He scored 43, 45 and 60 runs in the three matches that India won easily.

Kohli will be taking a break after the 3rd one-day international and will hope to be fresh for the ODI series against Australia at home, IPL and then the World Cup 2019.
