Star batsman Virat Kohli, who left the captaincy of Team India three years ago, was once again seen in his old style on the field. Rohit Sharma had distanced himself from the Sydney Test, after which vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah took command of the team. However, on the second day of the match, Jasprit Bumrah left the field after injury. After this, Virat Kohli took command of the team. As soon as Virat took command, the Indian bowlers suddenly started wreaking havoc and eliminated Australia quickly, after which there were demands to make Kohli the captain again.

This is how Australia collapsed under Virat's captaincy.

When Jasprit Bumrah left the field after injury, Australia's score in the first innings was 96 runs for 4 wickets.

From here Virat took command of the team and the entire Australian team collapsed for 181 runs. After Virat took charge of India, Australia lost its last 6 wickets in scoring 85 runs. Virat once again won the hearts of the fans with his captaincy. At one time, Australia seemed to be ahead of India's first innings score but in the end it remained 4 runs behind India's first innings score. Let us tell you that Team India had scored 185 runs in the first innings.

Fans demanded to make Virat back captain

What happened next, fans on social media demanded to make Kohli the captain again. One user wrote in praise of Virat, 'Australia's score from 162/6 to 181 all out. That too without Bumrah. Captain Virat Kohli. One user wrote, 'Bring back Virat as Test captain and see us flourish once again.'
