While Virat Kohli stepped down from India바카라s Test captaincy after losing the series 2-1 in South Africa, Joe Root-led England suffered a 4-0 Ashes debacle in Australia.
Kohli called time on his captaincy career in the longest format with a total of 40 wins under his belt from the 68 games he captained the side, which makes him the most successful Test captain of India. Root, on the other hand, has led England in 61 Tests, winning 27 and losing 25 of them.
바카라One of Kohli's great achievements was instilling in his team a craving for Test cricket. Despite his all-encompassing success, Kohli's major aim was to achieve victory in the Test arena and this is where his passion really shone,바카라 said Chappell in his column for ESPNCricinfo.
When he led India in Test, Virat Kohli enjoyed a sensational batting average of 54.80, which is better than his own average of 50.39 when he wasn't the captain.
Apart from lauding Kohli for showing faith in Rishabh Pant바카라s caliber, Chappell was also impressed with Kohli바카라s batting form as captain of India in Test.
Meanwhile, Joe Root too scored his runs at 46.35 while batting as captain of England. He is also the the most successful Test captain of England in terms of wins in the format, but Chappell feels that Root is a 바카라failure바카라 as captain in terms of making decisions.
Chappell called Root an 바카라epitome of poor leadership, compounded by bad luck바카라.
바카라The captaincy failure, despite having led his country more times than any other captain, is Joe Root. It doesn't matter what Root or any other English devotee tells you, Root is a fine batter but a poor captain,바카라 said Chappell.
Adding that Root was 바카라never going to be a successful leader바카라, Chappell said that the ICC Test Cricketer of 2021 lacks imagination in his captaincy and quickly runs out of ideas.
바카라The real killer were his tactics: they often made no sense,바카라 Chappell said.
