Virat Kohli on Thursday announced that he will step down as India’s T20I captain after the ICC T20 World Cup in UAE and Oman in October-November. The Indian captain took to social media to confirm the developments.

The Indian skipper will be looking to get his hands on the World Cup trophy next month, as this will be his last assignment as India’s T20 skipper.

Meanwhile, it can be seen that India’s winning percentage under Virat Kohli is better than former Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s tenure during which the side won the inaugural T20 World Cup in 2007.
