Team India has lost the inaugural edition of the World Test Championship final to New Zealand. And, ever since they lost, everyone started slamming India and the captain Virat Kohli. However, former Pakistan wicketkeeper-batsman Kamran Akmal has questioned those critics who have lashed out at Virat Kohli. However, under Kohli, India failed to win an ICC title to date. And, they lost the chance in the 2017 Champions Trophy and the 2019 World Cup also before the WTC final.

Meanwhile, referring to Kohli as the best captain of India after MS Dhoni, Akmal said that the India captain knows his job well and that those pointing fingers against him must not forget what he has done so far for the team and what his calibre as well.

“Virat Kohli is the best captain after MS Dhoni. He has 70 centuries. He played the Champions Trophy and the 2019 World Cup. Sure enough, India lost but what is his fault in it? India have remained the No. 1 Test for five years. Look at his achievement, his service… his captaincy is terrific. There is no doubt about it. He is an amazing player and the way he has prepared himself is phenomenal,” Kamran Akmal told sports presenter Sawera Pasha on her YouTube channel.

“He is an amazing player, amazing captain, and no one can guarantee that if India changes the captain, they will win ICC tournaments. It is a matter of luck. It is easy to point fingers, especially those who have no idea about cricket. People who have not even led a gull team are now giving Kohli and India advise to change their captain,” Kamran Akmal stated.

“I don’t think he would be affected by any of such things. He is mentally strong, a big performer. No one comes close to him. To score so many centuries and average over 50 in all three formats. Amazing,” Kamran Akmal concluded.
