Virat Kohli's captaincy was good vs Afghanistan, he didn't panic at any point: Sachin Tendulkar

India Today  

Batting great Sachin Tendulkar heaped rich praise on Virat Kohli's captaincy, saying the India skipper did not panic or get confused during a tense ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 match against Afghanistan on Sunday. Kohli, as Tendulkar pointed out, made the right bowling changes at crucial junctures, especially when it came to giving short spells to Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya who picked up 4 wickets between them. When there were dot balls being bowled he also knew Afghanistan was sinking slowly but surely," Sachin Tendulkar told India Today from Southampton. While Sachin Tendulkar had criticized MS Dhoni and Kedar Jadhav for a slow partnership in the middle overs of the Indian innings, the Master Blaster was all praise for the way Kohli went about his job with the bat.
