Sehwag interview:
Former india captain virender sehwag has said that virat kohli would have been dropped from Test cricket if he and mahendra singh dhoni had not supported him.
He told a private newspaper, "The kohli, who made his Test debut against the West Indies, scored just 76 runs in the series. He then stumbled against Australia. Before the third Test against Australia, the indian team Management was confused whether to take in kohli or not.
Also, talks were underway to field rohit sharma to replace Kohli. But dhoni, who was the captain at the time, and I, who was the vice-captain, supported that kohli should not be removed.
We know that after that the kohli created many achievements for the indian team. In 2012 there was a similar situation where kohli was eliminated. Even now, only dhoni and I supported him.
After that, the kohli started to come out on a different level. He amassed runs in a short time and took a separate place for himself in the Tests. He continued to be the captain after Dhoni.”
