With MSD’s departure, the throne is not the same. He, with
no notable foot work, innovating swachh bharat shot, average performance in
test cricket. MSD - the punch bag, the maidas, the finisher. Undoubtedly, MSD -
The Captain Cool.
Sometimes strategies subject to fail. Even then keeping the
emotions in check matters. MSD - the best in that. Initially, it seemed all
Luck. (for Me, for many still) But scoring in the slog overs, cannot be luck
all the time. Perception tends to change. Some people prove it wrong. If still
luck, then read as 'Fortune favours the brave'.
His test records may not be too good like his ODI or T20.
Yet the smiling punch bag, who accepts the loss on behalf of the team, will be
missed. Kohli, whose mercury surges high always, his gesture after a loss
cannot be, will not be like MSD.
Just over heard. Kohli - the next Dada. Because Dada is also
known for his aggression it seems. But his aggression was seen in celebrations
after a victory, certainly not in words during the game. And that will make all
the difference.
MSD all together gave a different view for captaincy. But with Virat in the same driver seat, its not going to be the cool stuff any more. So, tough time is on cards for news hour shows, post match. No
more the Captain Cool to make random comments, because here comes the Captain Contrast.
