It’s not right time to pass judgment on my captaincy: Kohli

TIL Desk Sports/ Virat Kohli has said it was too early to pass a judgment on his captaincy but insisted he has become a better batsman after assuming the leadership role since captaincy does not leave any room for complacency.

Kohli maintained that captain was only as good as his team, refusing a verdict on his leadership. “I don’t judge myself after every series. Priority and the only goal that we have is to win games of cricket.

Captaincy will be as good as how your team performs and how consistent the players are. If we are not playing to our potential as players, there’s not much I can do as captain.”The more the team becomes mature, the captain starts looking good. If the team doesn’t do well, the captaincy bit seems out of control,” Kohli said on the eve of series-opener against Australia.

“Maybe five to eight years down the line I will be able to judge myself as a captain if I remain captain for that long. I feel personally it’s too early for me to sit down and judge what I have done well or haven’t,” he said.
