MS Dhoni Played a \'Big Role\' in Getting me India Captaincy: Kohli

In an Instagram live chat with India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin on Saturday, Virat Kohli revealed how MS Dhoni played a big role in getting him India's captaincy.

"From the day I came into the Indian side, I wanted to learn and was intrigued by the game. I would always be in Dhoni's ears on the field. I would be bouncing off a lot of my ideas with him, of which he would refuse plenty. But he would also discuss a few things with me if he liked an idea. He would always keep observing me. I kept learning from him and my inquisitiveness probably gave him the belief and confidence that perhaps I was the next guy to lead the country," Kohli said.

"I don't think the selectors appointed me as India captain suddenly. They probably had Dhoni as a sounding board before giving me the reins. I believe Dhoni played a big role in me getting the India captaincy," he added.
