Virat Kohli has been leading the Indian team exceptionally well in red-ball cricket. Under his captaincy, India have been the top-ranked Test side from the last three years i.e. since October 2016 to be precise. India's ICC World Test Championship campaign began on an outstanding note. They first whitewashed West Indies (2-0) in an away series and have now registered a clean sweep over South Africa (3-0) at home. After winning five consecutive Test matches, Indian skipper Virat Kohli had all the reasons to rejoice and at the same time was also excited after MS Dhoni had made his presence felt in the Indian dressing room.
