Who could be the eager 'interim Indian captain' saying 'juniors aren't ready'? All hints point towards a familiar face

Hindustan Times  

In the wake of India’s poor run in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy, it seems cracks have appeared within the Indian dressing room. India's Rohit Sharma talks to his teammates before play on day five of the fourth Test against Australia It was reported by the Indian Express that the senior member has portrayed himself as the ‘Mr Fix-It’ to the Test team's crisis, and doesn't have significant faith in the younger players taking over the captaincy mantle just yet. While his tenure as captain ended amid tensions with the BCCI under Sourav Ganguly, no one can question Kohli’s captaincy in Test cricket. More importantly, his return as Indian captain might offer a smoother transition, given the similarities in the leadership scenario he faced when MS Dhoni surprised everyone by stepping down from Test cricket back in 2014. Kohli took over at a transitional stage in Indian cricket’s history, and if given the chance, he might help lead India through this difficult phase as well.
